Over the years we've graduated our share of PhD students with Old English in their repertoire, but also undergraduates and Master's students who have gone on to careers in Medieval Studies, some of them specializing in Old English and earning their PhDs at Cornell, the University of Connecticut, New York University, the University of Rochester, and the University of Virginia, among others. [...]recently, the graduate students taking my Old English courses would include both MA and PhD students from all three of our PhD tracks: [...]cultural and literary history always features in my classes, but the main aim has consistently been for my students to leave my course with the ability to read any text in Old English they might wish or be required to work with. Once this Parris Island-like portion of the course is complete, and exams are behind us, the remainder of the course is devoted to translating and discussing a selection of texts in Richard Marsden's The Cambridge Old English Reader.3 Partly because my department houses the History of Text Technologies program (and with it students at all levels with some knowledge of and interest in manuscript studies), but mostly because I am convinced it is an excellent way for learners of Old English to solidify their knowledge of the grammar, I typically assign an editing project in my beginning Old English course. The study of Old English might well strike some outside academia today as an \"intellectual luxury,\" to use Ronald Reagans famously inane phrase.11 But Bredehoft's admonition here resonates with my local situation, and I for one will continue to adopt the long view: I shall dabble in Medievalism when it makes sense to, I shall stress the insights into cultural differences and diversity to be gained from the study of Old English, but in the end my main goal will continue to be to nurture my students' intellectual curiosity by providing them with the tools to satisfy it, at least when it comes to this, one of my favorite premodern cultures.

Recent scholarship shows that eligible voters in neighborhoods home to many arrested and incarcerated individuals vote at lower rates than those in less-affected neighborhoods. Little work, however, has investigated how this turnout gap might be counteracted. This paper uses Amendment Four, a 2018 Florida ballot initiative that promised to re-enfranchise most individuals whose voting rights had been revoked due to a felony conviction to investigate whether this turnout disparity can be narrowed by a ballot initiative of particular significance to communities most affected by incarceration. Using prison release records, I identify the neighborhoods and households where formerly incarcerated individuals live and assess the voting history of their neighbors and housemates. I find no evidence that Amendment Four increased these voters’ turnout in 2018 relative to other voters. While ending felony disenfranchisement is necessary, closing the turnout gap resulting from histories of policing and incarceration will require greater investment and engagement.
