MSP 5010 Contemporary Community Issues
The course is designed for each student to identify, research, write, and present a selected community issue. The pictorial method of problem solving and presentation is emphasized. The development of a formal public program is part of the expectation and requirement of the class. Since community issues cannot be successfully addressed in isolation, the student will develop an understanding of how community problems are identified and resolved. Such factors as community, social, and ethical values, laws and regulations, governmental sources of revenue/taxing power, budgeting, development and use of personnel, shared government, and private sector cooperation are among the issues that will be discussed.
