COOL CLASSES: “Inequality and Public Policy”

"Inequality and Public Policy"

Taught by Visiting Assistant Professor of Political Science Matthew Incantalupo, this interdisciplinary course explores the relationship between policy and economic outcomes— in order to understand “who gets what”— in the United States.

Our Cool Classes blog series highlights interesting, unusual, and unique courses that enrich the Haverford College experience.
