Jeff Shook from the University of Pittsburgh will be in the campus Cinema to give a talk on juvenile justice issues tonight at 7 p.m. Professor Shook will also be available at lunch Friday, January 17 at 12:30 in the Parrish Dining Room at Warch Campus Center.
For a little more background, back in November, the Appleton Post-Crescent ran a story and editorial on proposed policies to change the way Wisconsin deals with juvenile defenders. In addition to his scholarly output, our Economics Colloquium speaker, Jeff Shook, weighs in on the subject in the Pittsburgh Post Gazette. He also has some space in a piece, “Just Kids,” from In These Times.
