Education and career

He later received his M.A. and Ph.D. from Columbia University in 1974 and 1979, respectively. Both his graduate degrees were in sociology and education. He taught at Western Illinois University before joining the University of Cincinnati in 1982 as an associate professor. In 1987, he became a full professor at the University of Cincinnati, and in 1993, he became a distinguished professor there. He became an emeritus professor at the University of Cincinnati in 2015.[2]

He served as president of the American Society of Criminology (ASC) from 2003 to 2004. In 2010, he received the ASC's Edwin H.
