Dear Seminarians,
Please see the message from Professor Berger below. / AO
For the midterm paper, write an editorial of approximately two pages, certainly no more than three, arguing for a change in a current city policy or program that falls within one of the topics we will have discussed by March 29: immigration, transportation, real estate and public-project development, policing and criminal justice, politics, economy and labor, and media relations. The paper is due March 29. In writing the paper, take into account the interplay of vision (ideas), politics, personalities, money, community reaction, bureaucracy and media influence that might affect your proposal’s enactment. The grade will be based on how well informed your paper is by what we have read and discussed in class.
