@BobOThomson Thanks, Bob! Hope you’re well!

These authors are both right AND totally failing to recognize that sociology and political science — two disciplines *focused* on institutions and contextualizing individuals within systems — are social sciences.

I once asked a police officer what the standard for probable cause was and a prosecutor objected that he didn't know

@matt_huffman And to imagine I was set off by one with merely 44 options. ((shudder))

PSA: Doodle polls with more than 10 options are inhumane.

If you are a college student who likes to nod intently at your professors while they're talking in class, just know that all of them adore you and think you are the absolute greatest

[Brielle Bryan @brielleebryan]

@RiceSociology They nailed it.

My sister was transferred to a prison work farm in VA, where she'll serve out her sentence.

It's one of the nicer prisons in the state. Still, she'll be required to labor 8 hrs/day for $0.45/hr.

Doing Zumba in public is a level of un-self consciousness I doubt I’ll ever achieve. And I even used to do high school/college theater. Hats off public Zumba-ers.

@CKdoeswork Oklahoma. So different university, same problem.

[Brielle Bryan @brielleebryan]

@CKdoeswork No one at OU at that point in time seemed to realize that was a recurring pattern for brown skinned kids. In my dad’s case at least he managed to switch to an “easy” major and eventually graduate, but he never held a job that seemed to really challenge him.

[Brielle Bryan @brielleebryan]

@CKdoeswork Almost the exact same story with my dad. He gave up on his dream of becoming an engineer first year of college because he had zero background in how to study for a weed out course, coming from an uncompetitive high school and as the first person in his family to go to college.

@meredithiszz @Blaine_Stum Thanks!

[Brielle Bryan @brielleebryan]

I tend to be very bad at self promotion, but I am quite proud of this article. @Blaine_Stum does a great job of hitting the highlights. I’ll also note that I think I’ve hit on a clever way to try to measure stigma in this article…

…substantive implication for folks who wrestle with the challenge of housing previously incarcerated Americans. In short, we also need to think about housing challenges for the ~12 million Americans with felony records but no imprisonment history.
