Want to do something for the future of California?
Can California fix itself? Devote four units this Fall 2011 semester helping to figure out how the Golden State can regain its luster.
Multidisciplinary Activities (MDA) 475 is a new class, intended as a capstone experience for students across the USC campus. Students spend the fall semester learning about the state’s policy, cultural and structural challenges, and begin the process of identifying solutions and options for structural reform. In addition to the class instructor, students have the opportunity to hear from faculty in a range of different schools at USC and meet with policy experts in the public and private sectors, who will offer their insights as to possible solutions for the challenges confronting the state.
Students will also convene a half-day “Fixing California” conference, in which academic, political, and government experts will participate in a series of policy discussions. Students will participate in the planning of these events and join in panel discussions, offering their own ideas and insights as part of the program.
