Fall 2018 - One of the easiest, most informative, and relevant courses I have ever taken while at UCLA. The exams are wholly based on the lecture slides despite him encouraging students to study the readings as well. The exams are a mixture of multiple choice, short response, and long essay. I would highly recommend this class especially if you are interested in the impact that city planning has on a number of other factors.
