Education, Violence, and Re-Wiring Our Schools Margareth Etienne† I. INTRODUCTION Is there a relationship between the education system and the crim- inal justice system? What is the connection between education and criminality? Two theories prevail. Theory I is, simply put, that educa- tion (or school programs) can reduce crime. This common perception is supported by a great deal of research among sociologists and criminol- ogists revealing that better and higher education attainment levels cor- relate with lower criminal behavior. Scholars diverge in their hypothe- ses to explain why this is the case,1 but it is fair to say that education provides opportunities that stem from greater substantive knowledge, hard and soft skills, credentials and greater employment prospects, pro- social attitudes, and positive social networks2 that advance the life pro- spects of young people. With these opportunities, students are less likely to resort to crime for money or social advancement and are more likely to be socialized against the acceptability of resorting to crime.3 In addition to robust evidence of correlation, some scholars argue that they have discovered causal links between education and lower crime levels.4 † Professor of Law and Nancy Snowden Research Scholar, University of Illinois at Urbana- Champaign.

  • HBO's the Wire and Criminal Procedure: a Match Made in Heaven
    114 HBO’s The Wire and Criminal Procedure: A Match Made in Heaven Brian R. Gallini Fans of The Wire know Bunk. Those fans who are legal minded may even remember, in the first scene of the first episode of Season 5,1 when Bunk masterfully interrogates a helpless suspect. I cannot imagine a better introduction to the Fifth Amendment materials in the Criminal Procedure course. But The Wire’s five seasons offer more than just helpful scenes. Rather, the show raises a diverse array of Fourth and Fifth Amendment issues that, I believe, can assist in teaching the Criminal Procedure course throughout the semester by keying all the course’s topics to The Wire. I proceed in this piece by offering (1) whyThe Wire makes for such a compelling pedagogical tool, (2) why a “one show” approach is superior to using sporadic clips from a variety of sources, and (3) then offering some concrete examples of how the clips are helpful on a class-by-class basis. Why The Wire? The Wire takes viewers into the inner-city streets of Baltimore for an in- depth look at the highly lucrative drug trade. Using a wide array of colorful characters, it treats viewers to a morally and legally complex world where police, prosecutors, defense attorneys, drug sellers and drug users all serve as compelling personalities living out the American drug war. Against that captivating backdrop is a more specific appeal to law professors—how all of The Wire’s characters interact with the Bill of Rights. Throughout its five seasons, the show provides an extraordinary number of discussion-worthy scenes that magnificently bring complex constitutional doctrines to life.

  • The Media Landscape Section ONE Commercial Media
    PART ONE the media landscape SECTION ONE commercial media NEWSPAPERS RADIO TELEVISION CABLE SATELLITE INTERNET MOBILE 33 1 Newspapers Newspapers across the couNtry have experienced severe cutbacks during the past decade, which has undermined their ability to perform their role as the nation’s watchdog. Ad revenue dropped nearly 48 percent between 2005 and 2010,1 and with it the industry’s annual spending on reporting and editing capacity dropped by $1.6 billion, from 2006 to 2009, a reduction of more than 25 percent, according to the Pew Research Center’s Project for Excellence in Journalism and Rick Edmonds of the Poynter Institute.2 The number of full-time journalists at daily newspapers fell from a peak of about 56,900 in 1989 to 41,600 in 2010, a level not seen since before the Watergate era.3 Early History: Cheap Paper, the Telegraph, and the Rise of the Independent Press The Founding Fathers believed newspapers to be so important to the development of the young country that they facilitated the creation of a robust distribution network. They provided newspapers with subsidized postal rates that were far below the actual costs of fielding, feeding, and caring for that day’s distribution technology: (horses). These policies changed the economics of newspapers, reducing publication costs and enabling publishers to expand beyond the confines of their hometowns. (Typical were theMansfield Gazetteand Ashtabula Sentinel in Ohio: a study found that in the 1820s a majority of their subscribers lived outside the central circulation area.)4 Laws also en- abled newspapers to swap copies with one another free of charge, which led to the frequent appropriation of content from other newspapers.
