Alex Lee ‘23 notes the dual perspective presented by Stamos, Facebook’s former Chief Security Officer and Riana Pfefferkorn, a research scholar at the Stanford Internet Observatory, provides “a comprehensive picture of cybersecurity, addressing past cases and recent issues.” Given that the US government gets hacked by China seemingly every year, this class is more relevant than ever. Hack Lab is aimed towards social science students and covers material ranging from how computer systems are hacked to public policy solutions to protect against such dangers. Professor Naimark is full of wisdom and wit. It’s a great opportunity to learn Soviet history, develop some archival research skills, and spend time with one of Stanford’s professorial treasures. Professor Naimark’s seminar is taught out of the Hoover Institution archives, one of the largest Soviet archives outside of Russia. HISTORY 23N: The Soviet Union and the World: View from the Hoover Archives, Professor Norman Naimark. Although this class is taught within the law school, Professor McConnell, a former appellate judge and constitutional law scholar, encourages undergraduates to enroll. Professor McConnell delivers insightful, thought-provoking lectures exploring how the Framers crafted the Constitution, from its intellectual origins in the works of William Blackstone and Baron de Montesquieu, to the political bargaining at the Constitutional Convention. This class frequently appears on this list, and for good reason. HISTORY 153: Creation of the Constitution, Professor Michael McConnell. To better connect students with the Hoover Institution, the Review has compiled a list of courses being taught this year by Hoover fellows, as well as five recommendations of particular classes that Review staff have enjoyed. Hoover can also be a fantastic resource for students, conservative and liberal, who are interested in learning from esteemed fellows about fields including history, economics, public policy, and geopolitics. Hoover is at once a pre-eminent research institution, historical archive, and a bastion of conservative politics in a liberal academic world. Unfortunately, most students don’t really take advantage of the opportunity. At Stanford, we are lucky among American colleges to have an institution like the Hoover Institution on our campus.
