History of Urban Life

Over the course of the semester, you have learned about the history of urban life in the United States since 1880, and you have used primary sources and secondary sources to trace that history. For your final paper, I want to provide you a chance to reflect upon what you have learned, by thinking about how you would teach a course on city life in the United States. You will create a mini-syllabus for your own course using secondary and primary sources we have used in class that you believe would help students understand the history or urban life in the United States.
