“This course was so good! We read many documents about the government, economy, and economic history of the United States. In the beginning of the year we traversed through the Constitution and studied it thoroughly. I really liked learning about the Constitution and what the founders of the country originally intended the government to be like. In a society where people who have never even read the Constitution before are voting or directing the government, I think it is very important to know exactly what it says and how to interpret it. I also enjoyed learning how to approach what is going on in the world today and how to think about those situations from multiple viewpoints. The second semester was focused on the economy of the United States, which I enjoyed learning about because the teacher gave a really good introduction to economics and the history of the economy.”
