I'm intrigued about your sex offenders research

My Research class is essentially the pre-thesis class that everyone has to take even if they want to do the comp exam. I think I want to do my thesis on pre-marital therapy. But I have to go into class with several ideas so if I get shot down I have some other options.

I'm doing it on a non-sexy (really bad pun) legal issue. Most felons are entitled to have their rights restored after a certain period of time, generally 10 years after probation ends. The issue with sex offenders is that since some of them are on the lifetime registry, they are essentially never off probation and can't get their rights restored. My boss at the PD's office thinks this will be an emerging area so I figure I had a good shot of getting it published if I don't crap it up.

I 100% support your un-sexy issue. It bothers me that those who are unlikely to repeat offend are lumped in with the rest AND that somehow what ALL sex offenders do, that lump group, is punished for life to an extent that can leave them homeless and in many ways more dangerous than they would have been otherwise.

A bit garbled, but in essence I like! Would you mind keeping me posted?

Yeah, no problem. I really haven't started working on it yet because I was originally planning on writing on an entirely different issue, but then I thought this might be less redundant compared to my other idea. I've been working with a few of our low-level sex offenders - I have one client right now that just barely skirted the statutory rape minimum and the State is pushing for lifetime registry, it's so ridiculous.

That pisses me off, particularly when it's "consensual" statutory. However much of a legal contradiction that is.

I am working on my Ed.S. (education specialist) degree in higher education. This is what my spring is looking like...

Spring 2008:

Legal Issues in Higher Education
The School and Community
Education Research II

^^^^the first part of this research class we spent working on our long as hayle proposals and getting IRB approval. The second part of the class we are actually going to conduct our research and compete our reports. The second part of the research class is not required but when my professor told me that it will knock out some requirements for my degree and that she would help me I jumped on it. She has been so helpful and will definitely be on my dissertation committee when I expand this same study. Work smart yall!!!
