Conversations from Penn State: Richard Ross


Posted on January 2nd, by Richard Ross in Blog, Featured in. 3 comments

In September I was at Penn State for a couple of jam-packed days– exhibiting the work, lecturing, sitting on a panel, and visiting with faculty and students. It was a great trip, completely multidisciplinary and educational for all. One of the days I recorded an interview for Conversations from Penn State. It’s now available online HERE, and embedded below. Enjoy! Also this is just a 20 minute segment… be sure to come to the lecture at the Vera Institute of Justice on January 9th at 6pm for more! (RSVP HERE)
