Class Lectures

Updated Class Lectures are in the works!

 

We are in the process of updating our lectures to reflect our new 2-week class schedule.  You might encounter some lectures that reflect our previous 3-week class schedule and some lectures where the audio version is not up to date.  Please be patient as we work diligently to deliver you the most up to date lectures.

If you experience an accessibility issue on this, or any other webpage, we welcome your comments.  Please visit our Accessibility Feedback Form to assist us in monitoring and improving your Graduate Center.
