Remembering John Richardson
We are deeply saddened to announce the passing of John Richardson, Emeritus Professor of Sociology at Western Washington University. From its founding in 2006, John served for nearly two decades as the associate editor of the Journal of Educational Controversy. Beyond evaluating submissions, he was a frequent contributor, a forum presenter, and an insightful interviewer for our author video series on You Tube.
While the journal is no longer active, Western Washington University has archived all published articles. Other multimedia assets remain available across various platforms.
In 2016, the journal dedicated a special invited issue to John. He framed that issue's controversy, authored its introductory article, and invited five outstanding scholars to respond.
To honor his memory and lasting scholarship, we have compiled links below to some of John’s seminal articles and interviews published in the journal.

15th Annual Educational Law and Social Justice Forum (2013)
This forum consists of panel members from various fields and disciplines who examine the policy implications, political ramifications, causes, and possible solutions to the School-to-Prison and School-to-Deportation pipelines. The School-to-Prison Pipeline refers to the funneling of thousands of students each year through the public schools and into the juvenile justice system as a result of school policies and practices that increasingly criminalize students, rather than educate them. The School-to-Deportation Pipeline refers to obstacles and fears, specifically of personal or family detention and deportation, that undocumented students face in a time of enhanced immigration enforcement, new laws criminalizing immigrants, and stigmatization by public rhetoric around ethnicity and nationality. Our panelists address these pipelines and respond to audience questions.
