我将设计一个名为“政治美人”的课程。本课程探讨各种历史美女,如克利欧佩特拉(埃及艳后)和蓬巴杜夫人(路易十五情妇),对世界各国政府的影响,以及当代不同国家对美的定义。学生将不仅学习真实人物,也学习神话中的人物,如特洛伊的海伦和中国古代的四大美女。课程将重点分析美学对不同性别的影响,以及不同文化之间的权力分配。现行标准的美所倡导的西方化和欧洲主导对世界,尤其是亚洲和中东文化,有着怎样的暗示?在美国什么被认为是有吸引力的?它是如何与不同群体,包括少数民族、妇女和同性恋,在美国的政治影响相联系?生物学和心理学因素是否也发挥某种作用?

1.波莫纳学院的录取竞争十分激烈,与顶尖的综合性大学一样,教育质量很高,奖学金资源十分丰厚。它的费用和其他文理学院基本持平,而且它并不喜欢书呆子学生,虽然他们要求的SAT分数几乎是文理学院中最高的。
2.美国百分之九十以上的文理学院都地处偏僻小镇,学校致力于本科的小班教学,没有助教,所有课程都是由拥有美国名牌大学博士学位的资深教授亲授,所以非常注重教学质量。
3.波莫纳学院不设置商学或者医学专业的,如果学生对于商学或者医学感兴趣,只能选择经济学或者医学预科的相关课程。文理学院不强调专业性知识的传授,这也正是文理学院的立校之本,即所授课程只强调一个“广”字。文理学院的教育目标,是力求塑造一个人的整体学识素养,并不热衷于传授学生一些具体技术性的知识,比如与金融、传媒或者会计等相关的课程。
