Great open day today. Having been away on research for a little while it was refreshing to be back in a lecture theatre. Roll on the new academic year!

Good luck to all the Lboro Criminology, Sociology and Social Policy Loughborough Communication and Media Loughborough English Loughborough Geography and Environment Lboro International Relations, Politics & History starting their UG and Masters degrees today. Exciting times ahead 💜

The only way to survive #prison is to keep focused on one day getting released. Its only after release when you learn how prison kept you shielded from understanding just how much society hates and excludes people with criminal records.

Congratulations to Dom Willmott who was awarded a Scientific Impact Award by the European Association of Psychology and Law at EAPL Conference 2024 lboro.ac.uk/subjects/socia…
