Fall 2025 - This class was the best class I have taken at UCLA. Dr. Howard is an incredible lecturer, and we are so lucky to have him for an undergraduate class - he is definitely a graduate-level professor. This class will change your perspective on equity and education, no matter how "woke" you think you are. Each class is extremely thought-provoking and engaging. I wish I could take it again!!!
