Heard in Class and Faithfully reported:

- “This guy obviously work a la L.B. Johnson. He uses a kiss and kill strategy.” – student in Power and Politics class

Since we discussed that the international system was an anarchical system, one proposed the need for alliances to seek protection.
"- but what is the problem with C. protecting you?" - International Political Analysis professor
-"He is French. He won't go to war" - student responding

"- I am just wondering how representative you lots are, of the public opinions in the world" - IPA professor
"- we are the elite of the future economy - what we think matters more than what the public thinks" - student responding

"-this is bullshit" - student arguing in IPA class

The IPA professor apologized profusely in class, indicating that he very rarely pushes his ideas forward.
"- I have little time for people who use discourse to divide us, to make us violent. I don't care who does it but I find it despicable"
