J. Christopher Fuller Lends Expertise to UrbanPlan Program

May 2, 2007

HOUSTON (May 2, 2007) — Bracewell & Giuliani LLP attorney J. Christopher Fuller is lending his real estate expertise to Dallas-area students in conjunction with the UrbanPlan program, aimed at educating high school and college students on effective land use.

The program offers an opportunity to apply classroom learning to real-world problem solving, and functions as a cooperative addition to standard Economics class curriculum.

Mr. Fuller completed volunteer certification training through the Urban Land Institute (ULI) in order to mentor students during a six-week period, as they work to create a detailed and comprehensive redevelopment plan for a hypothetical blighted neighborhood.

“The hope is that one or more of these young adults might be inspired to pursue urban planning as a career,” said Mr. Fuller.

The Fisher Center for Real Estate and Urban Economics at the University of California, Berkeley developed UrbanPlan in collaboration with The Urban Land Institute (ULI), a national non-profit organization of public and private sector land use professionals, and high school economics and government teachers.
