PUBPOL 890 | Instructor: Sue Wasiolek
This graduate-level course is designed to introduce students to the intersection of legal and policy issues facing the educational system in this country by emphasizing both doctrinal law and applied policy analysis, thereby preparing students to translate legal principles into actionable policy recommendations. We explore foundational legal cases and their continuing influence on educational institutions, while also analyzing policy frameworks that govern K-12 and higher education. This class is taught on a platform and through a lens of civil discourse, respecting and modeling the value of respect, compassion, listening and curiosity in the classroom.
