Learn What Makes a City a City

As a student in the Public Policy Program at Saint Peter’s College, you will examine Public Policies which have shaped, and are shaping today’s cities. More importantly, you will explore a range of potential policies which can be used to shape our future. Your concern about community conditions and public services is the foundation for an in-depth analysis of the contemporary urban environment.
