Cool Classes - “Borders, Immigration, and Citizenship”

“Borders, Immigration, and Citizenship”

"I decided to teach this class when I noticed that when it comes to borders, immigration, and citizenship, discussion often sheds more heat than light. I wanted students to come to these questions with an open mind, and to find good reasons to defend their points of view." — Associate Professor of Political Science Paulina Ochoa Espejo

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