Associate Professor of Public Administration Thomas Sinclair, in collaboration with Bruce Neubauer, associate professor of public administration at Albany State University in Georgia, developed 鈥淟iving with the Rivers鈥 as part of their respective core introductory MPA courses (PAFF 520, 21st Century Governance and PADM 5011, Public Administration Scope, Development and Ethical Environment). Collectively, the courses won the Network of Schools of Public Policy, Affairs and Administration (NASPAA) Social Justice Curriculum Award (co-sponsored with the NYU Wagner School and the UCLA Luskin School) for 黑料视频 and Albany State University for promoting the incorporation of a social justice lens into the core curriculum of a NASPAA school; a faculty member or faculty team will show how social justice principles have been incorporated into the syllabus and teaching activities of at least one core course.
The web pages for the two courses, and http://www.robertcat.net/spring2013.padm5011/ provide the syllabi, project description and resources provided to students from both classes. The collaboration came about because both the Albany, Georgia and Binghamton, New York areas have been significantly affected by severe floods in recent years, and represented a common experience for the students from diverse racial, regional, professional and cultural backgrounds.
