Course Description

The founders of the American Republic, in one of their most audacious decisions, created a strong and independent president.  The world had never seen an office quite like the American Presidency that the founders put in place, through this act of genius, and it became the rock of the Republic.  America's great presidents secured the stability of the nation and the peaceful transition of political power.  Each one of the leaders to be explored in this course led the nation through a pivotal era of history and advanced the power and authority of the presidential office.

Herbert Weinstein, Ph.D. received his B.S. from Tufts University and a Ph.D. and Sloan Postdoctoral Fellowship at Princeton University in Chemical Engineering.  After a 32-year career in industry and as a private consultant doing oilfield research, adjunct teaching at colleges and private tutoring, he chose to enter secondary education. Herb has taught math at all levels and fundamentals of computer programming at Yavneh Academy, The Hockaday School and Parish Episcopal School and is now retired after 13 years of secondary education. “I did some great things in industry, but I feel that as a teacher, I have done even greater things; making a major difference in the lives of my students-students of all ages!”
