Our Teaching
Philosophy
At St.
Mary's we believe that learning involves frequent exchanges of ideas
between students and faculty. This goal can be achieved only
through effective communication. Students should speak with
Michael as much as
possible about their interests in politics, the courses they are taking,
and their ideas about contemporary politics. You can do this during his
regular office hours, in lunch meetings throughout the week, during a
friendly afternoon coffee at the new student center or through e-mail
messages at night or the weekends. Whatever way is most comfortable or
convenient, always feel free to share your thoughts with him.
