In this course we will explore geographies of education with particular attention to questions of inequity and racism across educational landscapes. Specific topics will include zoning, school choice, racial segregation and neoliberal school reforms, and will draw on scholarship at the intersection of education and geography (including from the sub-fields of educational geographies and children's geographies). Students will complete substantial research projects and hone their abilities to analyze policies and institutions in spatial terms.

This course is open to juniors and seniors

Permission is required for interchange registration during the add/drop period only.
