Spring 2018 Newsletter
Welcome From Our Director
Hello, and welcome to the inaugural newsletter of the University of Utah Prison Education Project. This newsletter details some of the progress we have made so far and shares many our future plans. In our newsletters, you can hear directly from UPEP students, professors, and volunteers.
UPEP grew out of the 2016-2017 Honors Praxis Lab, Education, Incarceration, and Justice. The creation of UPEP is the result of much collaboration, and this collaboration is ongoing.
