Welcome to Fall 2022!

Welcome to my CCSF homepage!

It is my privilege to teach many courses here at City College! This page will tell you a bit about each.

Below you will find information on the courses I teach.

But first, allow me to introduce myself,

I'm Lou Schubert. I love teaching and teaching politics is (almost always) a pleasure. The ideas, the debates, the entertainment of watching as society tries to figure out what to do is endlessly fascinating to me.

My doctorate is from the University of Southern California; My dissertation was on National Security and the Environment looking at the United States as a case study. I was well-trained in graduate school to teach across the Political Science discipline. My doctoral major was American Politics and my minors (figure like a Master's degree worth) were Political Theory and Comparative Politics. Since my dissertation was on national security that gave me a ton on International Relations as well. The environmental focus taught me public policy and of course environmental politics.

I teach classes on all these here at CCSF, along with an American Studies course called "Comics, Power and Society" because I'm a comic geek since forever, as well as "Terrorism and Counterterrorism" in our Administration of Justice department, because that subject fascinates me.

Fortunately, I ended up in San Francisco teaching an amazing student body about fun and interesting things. Ain't life grand?
