Dickinson College in Carlisle PA, has a Marxist (Sinan Koont, phd from UMass-Amherst), a neo-Marxists/radical political economist (Chuck Barone, Phd from American) an institutionalist (Gordon Bergsten, Phd from UCB), and a non-neoclassical Austrian (Bill Bellinger). Their visiting people are usually from UMass (in recent years George DeMartino and Ted Burczak) or George Mason or American. Maybe their recent environmental economist is mainstream, but as a dept, they are pretty non-orthodox.
By the way, on the terminology, someone on the PKT list suggested that "orthodox" is actually a misnomer, better thought of as "homodox." UMKC often uses "Pluralistic" instead of heterodox. -----Original Message----- From: Ellen Frank [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, May 13, 2002 8:37 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PEN-L:25946] Re: Re: RE: Hetero Depts Max - I don't beleive Tufts has a heterodox department (though the university does house the global development and environment program). Dickinson also does not have a heterodox dept; Matt is probably thinking of Drew University in PA -- where Tom Dickins teaches. As long as you're considering undergrad programs, Simmons College in Boston has a nice mix of faculty as does Mount Holyoke. I personally hate the word heterodox. How about inclusive, open-minded, free-thinking? Ellen
