The Big Class
Each year, I offer a team-taught course featuring nationally renowned guests. Course topics include the Presidential Election, Latino Politics, and Immigration Reform. We have brought in US Department Secretaries, Congresspeople, Presidential Candidates, prominent journalists, and activists. This course is proudly sponsored by the University of Miami College of Arts & Sciences Dean's Office. This coming Fall, I will offer the 2016 Election course with Fernand Amandi, Casey Klofstad, and Rudy Fernandez.
