Image: Graduation Day for our 2023 Inside-Out students! They shared a Zine containing drawings, stories and poems written over the 8 weeks the students met together at the ACC jail. The Inside-Out Program is a course that brings together campus-based college students and incarcerated students who meet in a correctional setting. Inside-Out at UGA (SOCI 4470S) is an opportunity for a small group of students from UGA and a group of residents at the Clarke County Jail to exchange ideas and perceptions about crime and justice, the criminal justice system, and imprisonment. It is a chance for all participants to gain a deeper sociological understanding of the criminal justice system by engaging in conversation about theories, academic research, and practical experience. The next Inside-Out class at UGA is planned for spring semester 2024, facilitated by Dr. Sarah Shannon (SOCI 4470S).
