Changing Lives Through Literature part 5 of 5: Can literature change lives?
The following set of blog posts summarizes the work I have done with an organization called Changing Lives Through Literature (CLTL). My first post described CLTL, next were two interviews with former CLTL students, Ken, Sheila, and Veronica. This final post of the series, “Can literature change lives?” provides several empirical studies that appear to validate the ability of humanities education to assist individuals struggling through poverty and drug addiction—two major, interrelated factors in most crimes.

Halloween Inspired Soft Circuits!
The ghoulish looking friends use a magnet to keep them connected. It also functions as a switch to light up the little guy!
The pressure sensor bat, seen here lit and unlit, was created for the Gettin’ Batty workshop at Lovecraft Bar on October 26, 2012.
Meanwhile, the cat holds the power for the bat! When the bat gives his kitty companion a hug, his eyes become all aglow.
