I love Walter Williams' columns. THey occasionally appear in the Morning News--not often enough. You don't like him?

>>>>>So take economics from Walter Williams.<<<<<

I took a look at the class schedule, and I can't. He is the Chair of the Department, and only teaches one class this semester, Intermediate Microeconomics, which requires calculus as a pre-requisite. I have never even taken trig, much less calculus, and am fairly certain that I could not pass calculus, although I have become a much better student as I have aged - ah, matured. So maybe I could. But I don't plan to find out.

But, your suggestion did open my mind to the thought that there were other avenues for study in addition to psychology, and I think I will give Conflict Resolution a try. It would be on the same side of the spectrum as law. Actually, law and psychology do have in common the need for empathy. But, the tools are so very different.
