[quote=Anonymous]One of my undergraduate degrees is in political science, and I did a concentration in political theory, taking every course offered by the professor who specialized in that area of study. A seminar on Plato’s Republic was one of the foundational courses - I still remember room in the old hall where I took that course in summer session. Later I earned a law degree from Georgetown and took the alternative curriculum, which did all the black letter law but added to it a great deal of political/legal theory. More Plato, of course! There is absolutely NOTHING in Plato that should be off limits to college students or anybody else. Unless you are intentionally trying to produce an ignorant populace who will never dream of philosopher kings or wonder if they might be trapped in a cave being fed lies and half truths. It is a sad road we are on in this country.[/quote]
