Dr. Stacy Erickson-Pesetski, professor of English & associate dean of academic affairs at MU, shares her experiences reading Shakespeare with incarcerated adults and juveniles in Indiana prisons and jails for the past 12 years. She suggests that programs like this are an important and needed piece of the criminal justice system and gives evidence that they increase literacy, promote community, and offer emotional outlets for those recovering from trauma and addiction. Paired with a screening of the 2024 film Sing Sing on Tuesday, Oct. 28. Join us in the Stauffer-Wolfe Arena in the Physical Education and Recreation Center for Manchester Madness. Hosted by sports management students, this event will have free giveaways and fun games in a Hawaiian theme.
