UIUC: Grad Course on Local Policy and Immigration
by Ann Abbott 
If I were a graduate student, I would take this course by Prof. Stacy Harwood. If you're not a graduate student, look at the reading list--it can give you lots of ideas and resources for your own approaches to teaching and research about Spanish community service learning.

"UP535 / Local Policy and Immigration
Fall Semester, Wed 5 to 7:50pm, CRN: 55971 / 4 hours
Instructor: Associate Professor Stacy Harwood
Department of Urban & Regional Planning
Explores major issues confronting urban planners working in highly diverse communities that are undergoing rapid demographic, economic, social, and cultural change. Focuses specifically on planning and policy making in communities with large numbers of immigrants, particularly in cities and regions in the United States, Canada and Europe. Weather permitting we will take a field trip to either Chicago or St Louis and explore the local CU community as well. Topics: National versus local impacts of immigration, “Browning of the Midwest”: who, where and what are immigrants doing?, Impacts on urban form and function: variations in the use of work, home and neighborhood space, Ethnic enclaves: neighborhood revitalization and economic development, Local politics around living and work conditions of immigrants, Anti-immigrant legislation at the local and state level, Immigrant-friendly cities – local policies and social movements, Community participation in multicultural and transnational communities
If you are interested in this course, please tell me what you would like to learn about. While I have a set of course topics above, I am more than happy to incorporate topics/reading that fit with your interests!
