Absolutely the top two classes I ever took were in college
- Introduction to Terrorism (took is spring '00 - before terrorism got "cool"). Not "introduction to be a terrorist", but an investigation of the socio-religio-economic drivers of terrorism around the world (with a primary focus on Latin America and southeast Asia). This included defending a target against a range of terrorist actions (my group chose an embassy that backed to a river or harbor)
- Counterterrorism (fall '06; taught by a former member of the Israeli Mossad). The big assignment in this class was to plan a terror attack on the school.
- rajeshp1986 4y agoVery interesting. Are these classes available to regular folks or do you need to be in army or police to enroll into these kinds of courses?
- warrenm 4y agoThe first was a general studies (or was it history) class at my community college The second was an upper-level general studies class (either 300 or 400 level) at the university I attended
