Classes Attendance at lectures and recitations is required. The professor reserves the right to cancel scheduled recitations in favor of a full class lecture. The student is responsible for knowing the disposition of course meetings at all times. Field reports and research paper will test the student's ability to synthesize all course materials, including lectures, readings, field work and class discussions. Recitations will focus on discussion about the readings, field work and research projects.
Debate is encouraged.
However, please remember that principled dialogue is the best form of learning. Communication is an overlooked yet critical aspect of the urban crisis. After-class consultations and other meetings can be arranged with the instructor. All queries will be promptly answered. I welcome all discussions except those about grades.
