A Learning Experience Unlike Any Other

The Peopling of New York might be one of the most interesting courses I have taken.  I really enjoyed learning about the impact of successive waves of newcomers on urban culture and politics, and the continuing debate over assimilation and Americanization.  It was fascinating to learn about all the different people that make this city what it is and give it its character.  In the statistical profile we analyzed a specific group of immigrants in the city, which was eye-opening.  All in all, everything in the class combined to make a learning experience unlike any other.
