ABOUT OUR PROGRAMS
CESJ runs several programs designed to build and supplement a social justice community at Lang. Ranging from our intensive, four-year Freedom Scholars program to a summer fellowship, our programs offer a variety of ways to get involved.

The Freedom Academic Achievement and Opportunity Scholars Program is a social justice peer-learning community where an inclusive cohort of students study the elements of intersectional movement building and social justice through a values-based curriculum.

In Spring 2018, Lang piloted a course at the Metropolitan Correctional Center (MCC), a federal facility located in downtown Manhattan that houses men and women accused of federal crimes or serving short-term sentences. In Fall 2018, we built on this pilot class by running another class solely for MCC students, along with one combined class, bringing Lang students to MCC to engage in classes along with incarcerated students.
