SDAPA Young Planner's Group Grad School Panel
The San Diego Chapter of the American Planning Association Young Planners Group (YPG) assembled a panel to discuss Grad School (April 8, 2021). Panelists include USP faculty member Sue Peerson, recent USP graduate Elizabeth Owen now attending UCLA, and current USP student Natalie Tran.
