What are your thoughts on college behind bars?

College for [u]prisoners[/u]?

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

I dislike the word 'felon'. I find it dehumanising and a little adolescent ('good guys' and 'bad guys' mentality.) In my country we talk about people being in prison. He went to jail. She got locked up. ...like that. Just a personal view.
A good justice has multiple components:
* A form of punishment for crime
* Protecting society
* Reformation - break the cycle of crime by helping people find ways to be constructive members of society.

I totally support education in prison.
