A Dispatch From Dave Brat's College: Teaching Politics at the Center of a Political Storm

Commentary
By Rich Meagher


Thanks to Eric Cantor, at least one part of my job should be much easier this year: getting my students to pay attention to local political races.

I teach politics at Randolph-Macon College, a small liberal arts institution just north of Richmond, Va. Our school has a sterling local reputation, but not much of a national profile.
