(US News and World Report) "James Madison College, the residential liberal arts school at Michigan State University also draws praise. According to one James Madison College student, "It should be ranked in a different category from Michigan State University. It has great professors, none of the classes are taught by TA's, the faculty is always available, the classes are no more then 35 people, it's a competitive environment, and is very challenging."

Extractions: Like his close friend Thomas Jefferson, James Madison came from a prosperous family of Virginia planters, received an excellent education, studied law though only informally and quickly found himself drawn into the debates over independence. In 1776, he became a delegate to the revolutionary Virginia Convention, where he worked closely with Thomas Jefferson to push through religious freedom statutes, among other liberal measures. The youngest member of the Continental Congress, Madison was of smaller than average height for a Virginian of the period; reports have him standing either five feet four or five feet six inches tall. His soft-spoken, shy demeanor was a foil for his brilliant persistence in advocating his political agenda. Madison emerged as a respected leader of the Congress, known for his hard work and careful preparation.

Extractions: There was another cloud hanging over the convention: the issue of slavery. Late in August a new confrontation developed on the floor of the convention. Delegates from some of the northern states were intent on eliminating, or at least limiting, slavery. They thought that the constitution would be an ideal vehicle to do this. Madison commented in his private notes that "It seemed now to be pretty well understood that the real difference lay, not between the large & small but between the N. & Southn. States. The institution of slavery formed a line of discrimination." A second major factor of the Grand Compromise, when all was finally settled, was that slavery was actually protected by the constitution (Article 4, section 2 "No person held to service or labor...") The delegates further resolved that the slave trade would be left alone for another twenty years. • an alien act allowing the deportation by executive order of any non-citizen that the president found "dangerous to the peace & safety of the United States".
