Faculty Members<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Are you interested in teaching an Inside-Out course this academic year or next? If so, please fill out this interest form<\/a> and submit by October for Spring semester and by February for Fall semester. Course placement depends on instructor availability and student need, prioritizing equity throughout. The final decisions rest with campus deans. The form asks about:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Tentative course title, topic, and proposed description<\/strong><\/li>\n
  2. Preferred semester, year, day, and time (M-F, 12:30-3:30 pm or 5:30-8:30 pm)<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Faculty must complete a six-day Inside-Out training before teaching. Multiple training sessions<\/a><\/strong> are offered each year across the U.S. Funding support is available (details below).<\/p>\n

    JEC Programming and Course Support<\/h2>\n

    The Justice Education Center offers funding for justice education events, including conferences, lectures, community programs, and course development awards.<\/p>\n

    To learn more, email justice_education@pitzer.edu<\/a> for the application form.<\/p>\n

    If you\u2019re a 5C (Claremont McKenna, Harvey Mudd, Pitzer, Pomona, or Scripps) student, you can find ways to participate in the Justice Education Center regardless of your major. We encourage students of all backgrounds and areas of study to explore the various academic and experiential opportunities that JEC sponsors and to check out the criteria for receiving JEC funding for justice system-related events and community work.<\/p>\n

    Keep an eye out for the forthcoming Justice Education Studies major and minor: an interdisciplinary, intercollegiate collaboration that we hope will be fully realized by 2027 and which will allow students to incorporate pathbreaking theoretical and pragmatic work on justice-related issues into their courses of study.<\/p>\n

    For all JEC updates, subscribe to our mailing list<\/a>, and follow us on social media<\/a><\/p>\n

    Academic Opportunities<\/h2>\n

    Take an Inside-Out Course<\/h3>\n

    See current Inside-Out course offerings<\/a> in the course catalogue and schedule, labeled as \u201cInside-Out\u201d<\/p>\n

    Inside-Out courses form the core curriculum of the forthcoming Justice Education Studies major and minor and our re-launch of our in-prison BA pathway for currently incarcerated students. 5C student participation in these courses is contingent upon instructor approval<\/strong>. It entails a semester-long course in a carceral setting with equal numbers of campus-based and incarcerated students. The unique dialogue-based methodology of these courses makes them incredibly generative and often profoundly transformative. Interested students must register for Inside-Out classes according to the normal registration process within the deadlines given by the college offering the course. Instructors will contact registered students directly with further instructions about the application and interview process.<\/p>\n

    Experiential Opportunities<\/h2>\n

    Intern or Volunteer with One of JEC\u2019s Partner Organizations<\/h3>\n

    Design or help facilitate a class with the Prison Education Project<\/a>, co-lead college preparation and career development courses with the Reintegration Academy<\/a>, or volunteer to lead meditation and emotional process work or organic gardening workshops with the Land Together.<\/a> Learn more about the organizations we partner with<\/a> and get involved with their work!<\/p>\n
