Where should an aspiring politician go to college?

Since the age of four, law, history, philosophy and political science have been my passion. I spend hours on a daily basis reading books about these topics, Supreme Court cases, news papers, etc. In short, Political Science is my thing and I love it. I want to pursue political science in college- What are some good colleges I should look into and why? I live in California. Thanks, I appreciate the answers.

How to Determine if a Degree in Computer Science is Right For You?

According to many news sources on the Internet, the overall enrollment in Computer Science degree programs has dramatically decreased over recent years due job competition (overseas and domestic), lower pay, and general disillusionment about future employment prospects. Although Forbes lists that fields in IT (Information Techology) are three out of the ten fastest-growing fields, this doesn’t necessarily mean that a degree in Computer Science will give you a great advantage over less-demanding IT degrees. However, CompSci majors tend to earn more and are typically favored by employers compared to other IT majors with equal experience. Consider the following points before venturing into a Computer Science degree program.
I’ve been hearing a lot of bad news about Cal Poly Pomona and its College of Science, is it just a rumor?

I mean lecturers being fired, classes filling up, incapable teachers AND students, in addition to hearsay suggesting sporadic class cancellations. Studentreviews.com show reviews that convey a lot of negative sentiments. I’d love insight from current students. Thanks in advance.

Starting from 9th grade, Im taking these Courses and Electives:

What are some current environmental or public health issues that I can write a research paper on?

I need something that is in the news and it can NOT be red tide, sinkholes, or hurricanes. Please help me with some topics, some good places to also do the research, and any additional info would be great. This is for my college environmental science class.
