2020 Institute: Overview

The 2020 summer institute will focus on the creation and publication of scholarship connected to mass incarceration and the humanities. Faculty fellows will propose an academic, creative, or pedagogical research project that will be developed, workshopped, and submitted for presentation and/or publication. Through the spring semester and in the run up to institute fellows will share drafts of their works-in-progress, leading to the summer institute where experts in the field will join our conversations around publishing and the dissemination of our work.
