Maybe It's Rocket Science · Prison Education


When you research prison education you will come to find more benefits that outweigh any cons. Many prisons in America offer education programs to the incarcerated. Puksta Fellows, Erin Roney who focuses on education in prisons and Jhovani Becerra who focuses on the school to prison pipeline help us understand some of the main reasons behind why education is paramount into keeping people out of prisons. Dr. Stephen Hartnett who has written numerous novels on democracy in America and runs a prison education program discusses the facts with us to provide a professional's take on the subject.
