Abstract	Using Harvey's (2012) "Spaces of Capital: Towards a Critical Geography" and Sharp's (2009) Geographies of Postcolonialism as theoretical approaches and Gordon's (2008) "Mapping Decline: St. Louis and the Fate of the American City" as historical context, a graduate-level critical geography of urban higher education class conducts field observations of St. Louis' uneven geographies, centering Ferguson as a point of departure. Our use of critical geography and postcolonialism within education are critiques of U.S. capital accumulation in urban spaces and frame how we analyzed our observations and geographic information systems data. Specifically, we use the subaltern space of Canfield Apartments, where Michael Brown was executed on 9 August 2014 by a Ferguson Police Department officer as the central location. Through field notes of each student's site visits, bus-riding experience, and GIS data, we aim to provide mixed-method results on spaces of resistance and public transportation access, parts of uneven geographic developments contributing to discourses of U.S. college accessibility in St. Louis.
