Message from Dawn Rothe:

I wanted to let all of our Division members know that we have at this point renewed our contract with Springer. Springer has have offered to donate 200.00 towards book purchases for the winner of the Critical Criminologist award as well as 100.00 worth of books for the winner of the graduate student paper awards. Additionally, given the overwhelming DCC member vote to support a request for the inclusion of Springer's recognition of the Division's choice of editor and terms of service, Springer has included terms of editorial ship for one term of 3 years with a possible extension of one additional term (not to exceed 6 years). While this is a compromise from the 3/2 we voted on, it is a major accomplishment and a minor compromise given the overall situation. Additionally, as has been pointed out, a 3/3 is a common practice with other Divisions as well as ASC main journals.

The Division of Critical Criminology is currently taking applications for the following position:
