CONGRATULATIONS to Regina Hopkins, JD, who successfully defended her Ed.D. Capstone Project on April 15th. Her Capstone, “A Restorative Approach to Student Discipline: Examining a Small School’s Changed Response to Student Behavior,” used critical race theory as a contextual and analytical framework to explore the relationships between P-12 public schools’ race neutral policies and system-wide racially disparate student discipline outcomes. Casey Cobb was her major advisor – Preston Green and Sarah Woulfin served on her committee.
