The Housing Issues Symposium is an interdisciplinary program that offers opportunities for law students to work with graduate students in the schools of business, public policy, and social service at Saint Louis University, and architectural and social work students from Washington University. Students and faculty from these schools work in teams to respond to hypothetical and live requests for proposals (RFP's) for housing and neighborhood development projects. Each student team prepares a collaborative paper responding to an RFP. In addition, students make formal oral presentations of their proposals in a session that is open to the public. Faculty members from the participating disciplines conduct regular two-hour class sessions on multi-disciplinary aspects of housing and neighborhood development, such as low income housing tax credit financing, neighborhood collaborative planning and asset building, use of design principles to help gain community acceptance, and negotiation of public-private partnership agreements. Student teams, with at least one member from each participating discipline, meet regularly outside of class to discuss and prepare their team's response to the RFP they have chosen. The grade for this course is not calculated in the G.P.A.

This course explores major themes in the history of American law from the colonial period to the present: how American legal culture emerged out of an imperial background, was transformed amidst national expansion in the nineteenth century, and evolved in response to ideological and social pressures in the twentieth. The course focuses on law internally, looking at its personnel and sources, as well as externally, or how it relates to the larger social and political cultures around it. Recurrent themes include the adaptation of law as people move across space, the professional identity of the lawyer, the changing literary sources of law, the relative autonomy of law in relation to other cultural phenomena, and the power of law as an agent of social transformation.
