  We will run two sets of four or five concurrent sessions with alumni and former students presenting their own work or the work of their agencies/firms/organizations. We have selected topics that illustrate either changes that have occurred since the City and Regional Planning Program came into existence, or that focus on more recent innovations in planning.

   

  Proposed sessions topics are as follows. Alumni and former students are encouraged to submit an abstract of a presentation that he/she would like to make. See call for papers for more information.
