In this seminar, teams of students will generate policy proposals that address key issues in Cleveland's economic and community development. Each team will examine aspects of the city's past, drawing on primary sources from local archives and historical societies. They will evaluate current ideas for Cleveland's revitalization and, as part of their final presentations, create 30-second "spots" selling their proposals. Led by an urban historian and by the President of Cuyahoga Community College's Metro Campus, the seminar will bring students from Case to Tri-C into informed dialogue with city planners, private developers, public officials, and leaders from the nonprofit sector. For the first seven weeks, the seminar will meet at Tri-C and other downtown locations, such as City Hall and Playhouse Square (transportation provided). For the second seven weeks, it will meet at Case. artsci wiki
