Since I went on to study political science, history, international relations and a bit of economics at BA and MA level, I was very aware of which subjects I had ever covered in high school and what was new.

Just about everything I studied at Brown was not included in a late 1970's Dallas-area high school curriculum. Hardly mentioned, in fact. We had US government courses that amounted to basic civics, and a quick once-over in history, even at the AP level.

My freshman year, I felt like I had moved to another planet. Which I pretty much had, going from suburban Texas to college in Rhode Island.
