The Carceral Studies Consortium will host an educational gathering of faculty and staff on September 27th from 4:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. via Zoom. Learn more about the consortium.
The event is a time for OU faculty and staff who are doing work in the realm of Carceral Studies to learn more about the work their fellow colleagues are doing, provide feedback on which programming, events, and resources would be most helpful for the CSC to provide, share collaboration opportunities, and gauge faculty interest in affiliating with the Consortium in the coming year.
For questions or to request accommodations, please contact the Consortium (carceralstudies@ou.edu).
