What are your thoughts on college behind bars?

College for prisoners?

Most companies don't hire felons...


I'd be really interested to see how they do once released from prison with their prison degree 🤔

Watching a Netflix documentary called College Behind Bars

It makes all the sense in the world. I used to some work with prisoners and they're getting more serious about educating inside. Some guys do it just for something to do but a lot more take it seriously.

But you're right that a lot won't get hired because they're felons. That's changing though. Unless I'm mistaken there's like 15 states that don't allow employers to ask about criminal history. I think it should be a federal law. There needs to be a real incentive.
