Teaching
CPCRS builds on a long legacy of preservation education at the Weitzman School of Design and within the Graduate Department in Historic Preservation. Students and educators collaborate in classrooms, studios, labs, and in the field to bring preservation philosophies and principles to practice.
Applied learning is central to our praxis, and classes offered in concert with CPCRS projects and initiatives are the perfect way for students to gain experience using the theories and methods of research and documentation in service to community partners.

Civil Rights Heritage Courses
Learning from Civil Rights heritage in the classroom
Each semester CPCRS engages students with our partners in Alabama and Philadelphia through the Historic Preservation curriculum. In classrooms, studios, labs, and in the field, Weitzman School of Design educators and students collaborate to bring the preservation philosophies and principles of CPCRS “down to the ground.”
