Join Innis College on April 9 for the 2025 Alumni Lecture, "Can ‘Ex-Cons’ Help Improve the Criminal Justice System?", with Professor Jeffrey Ian Ross (BA INNIS 1985).

The criminal justice system struggles with entrenched issues that demand a fundamental re-evaluation. What if we used the voices of well-educated formerly incarcerated individuals to drive meaningful reform? Drawing from the Convict Criminology perspective, which amplifies the voices of those who have lived experience, this talk will explore how CJS reform could be improved by incorporating their expertise.

After the lecture, Professor Scot Wortley from the Centre for Criminology & Sociolegal Studies will join to moderate the discussion and Q&A.
