By Larry Tool

Learn about politics, citizenship, voting, Hawaii’s government and much more this fall in a new class coming to UH Maui College, Molokai. Political Science 110, taught by Larry Tool, will be held Mondays from 6 to 9 p.m.

Our own state of Hawaii is used in this introduction to politics and government. 2012 is an election year. We will have interesting guest speakers who will help us explore questions like why do we need government, how much does out past shape our future, who are our politicians and how do they get, keep and use power and does Hawaii need political change? This is a class in which your opinions matter.

Required test: “Hawaiian Politics and Government” by Richard Pratt (UH Manoa) and Zachary Smith. Email or call Larry Tool with any questions, ltool@hawaii.edu, 450-7238.
