[Das Outsider]

As for being a conservative PoliSci major--we're definitely in the minority. And I'm not afraid to mention FR (and my activities in front of said lefty wingnut either).

Do us this favor: don't conform to their view of conservatives. In other words, try not to sound like a 'Bot. Treat them--the lefty wingnut and dirty hippies in question--with the utmost respect at all times. You have no idea how your words and actions affect professors, even if they don't show it. Closing yourself off from them and speaking in seemingly esoteric conservative lingo only makes things worse.

If I've learned anything from the life of G.K. Chesterton, it is that you will be known by how you treat others. Those you deal with in the realm of ideas may give more consideration to what you say as a result, though they may disagree vehemently.

This has been the "So you want to be in Political Science?" pep talk. We now return you to regularly scheduled silliness already in progress...

I know.

The dirty hippies and the professor act like slimeballs. To act like them is to stoop down to their level.

Back to the thread silliness.
