But rest assured, it will be more than worth it. We will encounter Sartre, Camus, and, most importantly, William Vollmann, whose 4000-page epic on violence will be the spine of the class. Instructor permission required, as reading, writing, and discussion will require a motivated student!

A critical component of readiness is the ability to forecast—to anticipate and predict—when and where the next crisis will occur.

 What is terrorism? What are the causes of terrorism? What do terrorists want, and can they be thwarted? What policies salve the conditions that give rise to terrorism, and what counter-terrorism policies are most effective to combat this type of violence? Are civil liberties incompatible with counter-terrorism? These—and other controversial questions—will be the subject of this course. We will study theoretical works on terrorism, as well as histories of specific terrorist organizations from across the world. Included in the course are readings not only from journalists, historians, and policymakers, but also fiction writers. The goal of this course is to give students a well-rounded, comprehensive understanding of one of the most pressing national security issues of our time.

 The mental health of U.S. citizens has continued to decline at a staggering rate. Whether it is evidenced through substance addiction, violence, rising health care costs or many other indicators, we can no longer ignore this often stigmatized health issue. This class helps students understand if/how our federal government is attempting to address this ever increasing crisis. Are our current policies effective? If not, how can we change them? What populations do our federal law makers find deserving of access to mental health services and what populations are being overlooked? How do access and payment policies impact the success or failure of any of our policy interventions? This class helps to answer these questions while also providing students with the opportunity to learn the skills necessary to advocate for change.

 This course is designed to acquaint students with the fundamentals of military force and national grand strategy; that is, with the political uses of military power and the respective roles of military and civilian leaders in formulating and implementing foreign policy. Most commonly, comparative national estimates, or net assessments, of the adversaries’ balance of interests and capabilities are the driving factors shaping states’ foreign policy. Additionally, we will investigate how military force and preparations thereof affect civil society and how the characteristics of states’ domestic politics and policies affects the ways that leaders execute their chosen strategies.
