UB Scholars Advisor Crystal J. Rodriguez - Lane will be teaching this course which will examine the American legal system and the ways in which it attempts to resolve a variety of urban problems. Among the issues considered are housing, race, sex, employment discrimination, welfare rights, and restrictions affecting the handicapped. Readings will be discussed in class and guest speakers will come in weekly to discuss topics.
This is a great class for those thinking about attending Law School!!! Look forward to seeing you there!
*** Also crosslisted as AAS 382 which will give you credit for a General Education requirement.
