You do not need to sign up in advance. During office hours, I am happy to answer your questions about class material or assignments, or offer academic advice or mentorship. Generally, I meet with each student for 15 minutes, so it’s helpful if you come with a clear sense of what you’d like to discuss so that we can make the most of our time together. Course Description Governments increasingly contract or partner with the private sector to deliver public goods and services based on the theory that doing so will enhance efficiency and cost-effectiveness. Although policymakers often attend to the economics of privatization, this course explores privatization’s political and social dimensions, asking, who gains and who loses when public goods and services are privatized? Throughout this course, we will employ critical policy analysis (CPA) and critical race theory (CRT) to examine theories underlying privatization, evidence of its impact, and debates regarding its costs and benefits.

  • ALA CD 19.4 Intellectual Freedom Committee Action Item
    2020-2021 ALA CD#19.4 2021 ALA Annual Virtual Conference ALA Intellectual Freedom Committee Report to Council 2021 ALA Annual Conference Tuesday, June 29, 2021 The ALA Intellectual Freedom Committee (IFC) is pleased to present this update of its activities. INFORMATION IFC Privacy Subcommittee The IFC Privacy Subcommittee is reviewing and reorganizing its website, making it easier for visitors to navigate its many resources. The website also includes the Voices for Privacy Blog. Since the 2021 Midwinter Meeting, the blog has published book reviews, perspectives from an electronic resources librarian, updates about California privacy laws, information on the right to be forgotten, and possible solutions to privacy scenarios. The Voices for Privacy Blog also published an overview of the “Resolution on the Misuse of Behavioral Data Surveillance in Libraries” and the discussion that took place at the ALA Council session at the 2021 Midwinter Meeting, as well as a two-part series on the concept of “information fiduciaries” that is referenced in the resolution. The Institute of Museum and Library Services, in partnership with the American Library Association, has sponsored the creation of Privacy Field Guides. These practical how-to guides for making concrete privacy changes within libraries are now being tested by selected participants in academic, public, and school libraries. Among the grant objectives is the goal to help librarians become privacy advocates, giving them clear guidelines and discussion points for engaging with library leaders, vendors, boards, local government, and other stakeholders about privacy-related topics. At the 2021 ALA Annual Conference, leaders of the project, IFC Privacy Subcommittee Chair Erin Berman and Affiliate Researcher at Data & Society Bonnie Tijerina will host the on-demand session “Privacy Field Guides: Take Action on Privacy in Your Library.” The News You Can Use program will outline how library workers can use these guides, ask questions in a judgement free zone, and leave empowered to make privacy changes.

Kendi Little, Brown and Company, 2020, 294 pp ISBN: 978-0-316-45369-1 As seen in the Black Lives Matter marches and protests throughout the summer of 2020, systemic racism is prevalent throughout the United States. Jason Reynolds and Ibram Kendi (2020) ask, “whether you, reader, want to be a segregationist (a hater), an assimilationist (a coward), or an antiracist (someone who truly loves)” (p. 247). Throughout the book, a history of Black America is told through the lens of Black Americans: the broken pathway from segregationists to assimilationists to the possible antiracist future. The authors purport that this is NOT a history book. But Jason Reynolds, as a young adult author, and Ibram Kendi, as a historian, have a marvelous way of presenting historical material in a way that makes young adult readers want to read the book.

    REPURPOSED OR UNPURPOSED? 1 Repurposed or Unpurposed? The Evolution of Chicago Public School Buildings Closed in 2013 Nora D. Sullivan The University of Chicago April 24, 2019 Presented to the Department of Comparative Human Development in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the B.A. Degree REPURPOSED OR UNPURPOSED? 2 Abstract In 2013, Chicago Public Schools (CPS) closed 50 schools, leaving 44 school buildings to be sold and repurposed for new uses across the city. This study investigates the process of repurposing school buildings in Chicago and the extent to which these 44 buildings are still serving their respective communities. Eighteen interviews were conducted with academics, journalists, CPS personnel, community members affected by closed schools, and buyers of school buildings. The findings of this study show that chief among the factors that influence the success of repurposing these school buildings are: (1) differences in the vested interests of stakeholders in the closings and repurposing process, (2) inadequate communication regarding the process of closing and repurposing, and (3) obstacles to successful sales and repurposing. This study concludes that the influence of these factors has prevented the majority of the 44 school buildings closed in 2013 from being successfully repurposed. Introduction Chicago Public Schools (CPS) is a district composed of 644 schools serving 361,314 students as of the beginning of the 2018-2019 school year (Chicago Public Schools, 2019). Nearly 20 years ago, the enrollment of students in CPS was over 435,000. Student enrollment has dropped by 16.9% over the past two decades. This trend of declining enrollment, which mirrors the declining population of the city of Chicago, is expected to continue into the near future (Emmanuel, 2019).
