This course explores the linkages between education and criminal justice through the lens of inequality. The course begins in the educational system, exploring theories of opportunity in education and questions of inequality within and between schools. The second section of the course examines schools as sites of socialization and social control, emphasizing the increasing influence of criminal justice logics, techniques, and personnel on youth and education. The third section of the course explores processes of youth criminalization and contact with the juvenile justice system. These sections combined will sketch the contours of what some have called a "school-to-prison pipeline." Finally, we will consider how to address these inequalities and students will produce their own opinion writing or public service videos to bring awareness to the issues we have uncovered. Through the course, we will explore the impacts of inequality and punishment within educational and justice institutions.
