We are so glad you have chosen to spend this afternoon and evening with us at the University of Florida College of Education. Consistent with the mission of our hallowed and long-standing college, “to prepare exemplary practitioners and scholars; to generate, use and disseminate knowledge about teaching, learning and human development; and to collaborate with others to solve critical educational and human problems in a diverse global community,” we have purposefully selected our symposium theme:

Fostering Dialogue:

Educating Self and Other(s). Your presence is a critical component of the rich dialogue we envision. With so many talented individuals working in and around historic Norman Hall, as well as within the greater Alachua County community, we see tremendous value in coming together for important and varied conversations about the education profession. It is our hope that, in addition to sharing the intellectual gifts you no doubt have to offer, you also leave tonight having learned from friends and colleagues, old and new.

Enjoy!

The Hidden Curriculum of Justice: How the American Criminal Justice System

Educates, and Miseducates, Citizens

For an increasing number of Americans the criminal justice system plays a powerful and pervasive role in shaping notions of civic identity. Officially this education is supposed to reinforce notions of democracy, equality, fairness, as well as the opportunity for rehabilitation. In reality, however, the criminal system offers Americans a hidden curriculum of justice that is quite the opposite—a series of lessons in unlimited state power, racism, and economic death. In this talk Dr. Justice will examine three aspects of the criminal justice system—jury service, incarceration, and policing—and demonstrate the operation of two parallel curricula within them: a symbolic, overt curriculum rooted in positive civic conceptions of fairness and democracy; and a hidden curriculum, rooted in empty or negative conceptions of certain citizens and their relationship to the state.

It takes a trained and discerning researcher to keep the goal

in sight, and to detect evidence of the creeping progress toward it.
