Colloquium on Contemporary Urban Problems

Excellent readings on public policy issues that deal with racial politics, poverty, economics, etc of cities. Fuchs loves discussion and really makes you think before you speak. She is very supportive about new ideas as long as they're backed up by facts. Another good thing about her is that she's part of many New York area political "think tanks", so she really knows her shit about current issues. The only problem with her is that she loves to hear herself speak and enthusiastically supports heated discussions between herself and students (slightly intimidating).
