Steve McGovern, associate professor of political science, recently took his “Urban Policy” class on a field trip to Philadelphia. The class was studying economic development policy aimed at redeveloping the downtown cores of American cities. The students examined development initiatives that have been undertaken during the past 25 years to revitalize Center City Philadelphia while visiting sites including the Avenue of the Arts, the Gallery at Market East, Reading Terminal Market, the Thomas Jefferson University Hospital complex, and City Hall.
