LONG-TERM ARREST AND SCHOOL OUTCOMES OF THE PHILADELPHIA POLICE SCHOOL DIVERSION PROGRAM |
29 Psychology, Public Policy, and Law 471 (November, 2023) |
In response to school-based arrests representing a growing proportion of youth arrests nationwide, several programs have emerged to divert youth from school-based arrests. However, few such initiatives have undergone empirical evaluation, and none have been evaluated with a focus on long-term (i.e., 4- to 5-year) youth outcomes. To address this... |

OBEY OR ABEY: AN EMPIRICAL EXAMINATION OF ABEYANCE AGREEMENTS IN PUBLIC SCHOOL DISCIPLINE |
117 Northwestern University Law Review 1427 (2023) |
Abstract--Exclusionary discipline is widely understood to mean the typical responses to student misbehavior in public schools: suspension and expulsion. But sometimes their lesser-known counterpart, the abeyance agreement, swoops in before the suspension or expulsion is effectuated and gives the student a second chance to avoid such... |

POLICING AS ASSAULT |
111 California Law Review 865 (June, 2023) |
From ending qualified immunity, to establishing community control over policing, to eradicating the institution of policing altogether, proposals to remedy the issue of police violence are on everyone's lips. But, in the deep reservoir of proposals, the meaning of police violence has received relatively little attention. How should we think... |

RACIAL ISOLATION, SCHOOL POLICE, AND THE "SCHOOL-TO-PRISON PIPELINE": AN EMPIRICAL PERSPECTIVE ON THE ENDURING SALIENCE OF "TIPPING POINTS" |
71 Buffalo Law Review 163 (April, 2023) |
Two broad trends inform public K-12 education's current trajectory. One involves persisting (and recently increasing) school racial isolation which helps account for an array of costs borne by students, schools, and communities. A second trend, involving a dramatically increasing police presence in schools, is evidenced by a rising school resource... |

This nation is at an inflection point in which the future of a viable, multi-racial democracy stands in the balance.

Abstract. Since January 2021, forty-two states have introduced anti-critical race theory (anti-CRT) bills that restrict discussions of racism and sexism in public schools. As teachers, administrators, and civil rights organizations scramble to interpret these bills, many wonder: How can this be constitutional? At the heart of this broader... |

In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, approximately 55 million schoolchildren have been compelled to attend school remotely. However, despite this nationwide shift to virtual schooling, the school-based disparities that long pre-dated the pandemic have been laid bare and exacerbated. This is painfully evident in the context of the school-to-prison... |

2023 University of Illinois Law Review 1123 (2023) |
With almost no jurisprudence from the Supreme Court constraining schools' discretion in disciplining schoolchildren, it has been left to the states to define the constitutional boundaries of school practices that include exclusion, isolation, and physical restraint. But overwhelmingly, states defer to schools to set their own rules on disciplinary... |

THE STRUCTURAL HARMS OF PROVIDING MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES THROUGH THE BIPARTISAN SAFER COMMUNITIES ACT |
102 Nebraska Law Review 52 (2023) |
Many have proclaimed that the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act is the most sweeping gun control legislation to be passed in decades. However, the bill is not primarily a gun control bill--instead, much of the Act seeks to improve mental health services in hopes of preventing gun violence. Such a move is not rooted in established evidence, which... |

Title IX, a law that mandates equality, operates unequally. Title IX prohibits sex discrimination of all forms, including sexual harassment, in public schools. When students assert Title IX sexual harassment claims, one standard exists for determining Title IX's violation. The Supreme Court held that schools violate Title IX when they respond with... |

Close your eyes and join me on a quintessential American road trip driving west along I-70.
