Judith Trolander has been teaching Hist. 3361, "The American City," since joining the UMD History Department in 1975. Previously, she taught urban history at Western Illinois University. Her Ph.D. in history is from Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland. Among her publications are two books on the social settlement house movement. Settlement Houses and the Great Depression, and Professionalism and Social Change: From the Settlement House Movement to neighborhood Centers, 1886 to the Present. Another research interest is the evolution of different approaches to affordable (low income) housing. In the classroom, she finds how individual students will place different values on aspects of the urban experience especially fascinating.
