POSC 100 Podcast Politics 6 credits
This seminar will explore the fast-changing world of podcasting in American politics and public policy discourse. Political podcasts are emerging as a venue for political candidates to discuss their campaigns, policy makers to float new ideas for policy, and academics and analysts to discuss their most recent books. Political podcasts range widely on the ideological spectrum from extreme right to extreme left. Students in this course will examine, discuss, and write about particular political podcasts across this range of views. They will also explore the podcast form, eventually creating their own podcasts for course work.

The comprehensive exercise is a substantial (approximately 25-30 page) research paper on a topic within American Politics, Comparative Politics, International Relations, Political Theory, and Public Policy. The student should have completed a 300-level POSC course. The usual comps process starts with a research paper from an already-completed advanced seminar, which is revised or used as an anchor to write the senior thesis, with approval and guidance from the instructor, who becomes the comps adviser. The students must also prepare a poster based on their comps paper for presentation in a group forum.
