2017 Jan 27

Katelyn Gingrich of Palmyra, Pa., is one of 13 Lebanon Valley College students who participated in the College's annual Social Justice Institute in January. Gingrich, a graduate of Palmyra Area High School, is pursuing a bachelor of science in self-designed and biology at The Valley.

This year's institute was titled From Fingerpaint to Fingerprints: School-to-Prison Pipeline in Philadelphia. During the three-day leadership experiences, students attended a workshop with LVC faculty and then a second at The Philadelphia Center which discussed mass incarceration. The group of students also spent time at the Philadelphia office of the American Civil Liberties Union and visited the National Constitution Center.
