"The government is merely a servant -- merely a temporary servant; it cannot be its prerogative to determine what is right and what is wrong, and decide who is a patriot and who isn't. Its function is to obey orders, not originate them." -- Mark Twain "As citizens of this democracy, you are the rulers and the ruled, the law-givers and the law-abiding, the beginning and the end." -- Adlai Stevenson "No one is born a good citizen; no nation is born a democracy. Rather, both are processes that continue to evolve over a lifetime. Young people must be included from birth. A society that cuts off from its youth severs its lifeline." -- Kofi Annan How to reach me: Email: jgloekler@gvpt.umd.edu Office: Tydings 5149 Office Hours: Tue./Fri. 11:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. Home | CV | Courses and Sections | Research | Links | Contact Info
