Dear Political Science Students and Faculty,

The political science department has started a review of our curriculum. We have not done this systematically in quite a while, and we think we need to see what kind of changes would improve the experience for our students.

Professor Karen Beckwith will lead this process as Director of Curriculum Review. She will be gathering information about both opinion on what we’re doing and what we might do instead, through meetings and in any other ways we can find. We’ll greatly appreciate any time you can take to help her and us in the process.

If you have any thoughts or suggestions, please send them to karen.beckwith@case.edu. Please also, if you have the time and interest, try to answer any surveys the department sends out, or attend one or more of the gatherings Professor Beckwith will organize to hear your voices.

Joe White
