This is the one month celebration of the joy I experinced watching my wonderful and talented graduate students Yeqing LI and @Yibo Hu deliver excellent presentations of their research at the SRA 2026 conference in Toronto.
In this Milwaukee Journal Sentinel op-ed, Susan Stanton, @drat758.bsky.social, & David Pate commend Wisconsin Governor Evers' executive orders that create a clearer process for commutation but argue more reforms are needed to ensure people who are released are not set up to fail. Read:
Commuting WI life prison terms must include reentry process | Opinion
Gov. Tony Evers signed executive orders that established routes for prisoners to have sentences commuted. But more needs to be done to ensure success.
