| Beginning Fall 1999, we only meant to team teach our sociology and
criminal justice classes across a few thousand miles (between California
State University, Dominguez Hills and the University of Wisconsin,
Parkside). Three years later, our students are working together "long
distance" focusing on issues of peace and justice. The purpose of this
panel discussion is: 1) to bring our students together in a face-to-face
discussion of the interrelationship between social justice and criminal
justice, and 2) to connect with other criminal justice students and
scholars on these important issues. Since January 1998, we have used Dear
Habermas, an electronic journal of postmodern and critical thought for
undergraduates by undergraduates with a focus on peace and justice
(http://www.csudh.edu/dearhabermas) as a way to bridge the distances
between our two universities.
