Urban Studies

<p>I’ve heard this is a bit of a bs concentration, is this true? I want to go to law school and eventually get into real estate development most likely</p>

<p>bump…</p>

<p>please, someone? i’m leaning towards brown over georgetown and my current school, northwestern, but i’m still partially on the fence</p>

<p>I took one Urban Studies course with David Meyer. Pretty fun class. I think I’d enjoy more classes in that department. That’s all I can tell you on that one.</p>

<p>It doesn’t matter too much for law school what you major in, at least that’s what I’ve heard. You should be fine with Urban Studies if that’s what interests you. With Brown’s prestige law school admissions committees will recognize that you’re not just going to some slacker school and trying to coast your way through.</p>

<p>One of Brown’s best and most well known professors is half appointed in Urban Studies and in conversations with him he seems very upbeat about how things are run despite the difficulty of being involved with interdisciplinary studies that are extra-departmental.</p>
