[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Poli sci is the default pre-law major for a lot of students. Which is a good reason to major in anything but poli sci if you want to go to law school. [/quote] There is no good reason for a prospective law student to major in poli sci unless that happens to be their interest. Law isn't all about politics.[/quote] Law and political science do overlap in the field of constitutional law and public policy. Law is written and enacted by elected politicians and their staffs. Law shapes public policy and is used as a guardrail, gate, and change agent. DS is pursuing political science, philosophy and economics. He’ll probably end up with a double major and minor. His career goals are going to law school, becoming a public defender, working for progressive causes and politicians and running for office. [/quote]
