Goetz is a professor of urban and regional planning in the Humphrey School of Public Affairs and director of the Center for Urban and Regional Planning at the University of Minnesota. His research interests are in housing and community development planning, especially as they relate to issues of race and poverty. His new book, New Deal Ruins: Race and Retrenchment in Public Housing, will be published by Cornell University Press later this year. He is the author of Clearing the Way: Deconcentrating the Poor in Urban America (winner of the Paul Davidoff Award from the Association of Collegiate Schools of Planning in 2005) and Shelter Burden: Local Politics and Progressive Housing Policy.
Goetz's presentation is part of the 2011/2012 Contemporary Issues in Planning and Design Lecture Series sponsored by the Department of Community and Regional Planning, the College of Design, and the Graduate Community and Regional Planning Club.
