<p>Could someone at Bowdoin explain the depth of the government major, if internships can be found easily with professors, ect.</p>
<p>Also I am wondering about the Legal Studies path that is partnered with Columbia University and a student’s perspective on this route as well. Seems intriguing and something I may do. Thanks in advance</p>
<p>looks like not many gov ppl here</p>
<p>the government department at bowdoin is large relative to other departments at the school. i suppose it's deep, although not as deep as you'd find at a university. </p>
<p>as for the legal studies program, i don't think it's utilized often. there are many reasons for this. most people don't intend to go to law school as undergrads; many apply a few years after graduating. also, columbia is a very specific law school. some of the better students at bowdoin may desire some place different. some students who struggle with the LSAT may not qualify for the program.</p>
<p>Government and Legal Studies is the most popular major at bowdoin, numbers-wise.</p>
