The most harmful space to learn about the law is w/in the legal system, says Jhody Polk. “When we think of legal education, we think of criminal law,” she says. But for her, “legal education is understanding my legal rights.” @jhody_polk @theJLI_ @NYUBernstein #2022NCHEP
Incarcerated students from the Arkansas Valley Correctional Facility in Colorado had the chance to interact w/ @rwgilmoregirls during the #2022NCHEP keynote on #higheredinprison #RuthWilsonGilmore
#PellGrants for people in prison might leave some behind. "I continue to worry about students who are not Pell eligible and maintaining the funding for those." says @smeiman from @raritanvalleycc #2022NCHEP #higheredinprison #college
“I enrolled in my first college class nearly 33 years ago. ...My enrollment in an in-prison college program over three decades ago was because of two lifers who encouraged me to seek higher education.” @RomarilynR from @csuf kicking off the keynote at #2022NCHEP #higheredinprison
"I think that [prison ed] is a really important way to make the walls of our prisons more porous," says @KerametR. "I have three faculty who've never been inside prison...teaching courses inside a prison." #2022NCHEP
"Because I already had those skills, I didn't feel overwhelmed by it when I came home and continued my education to the point where it was crippling," says Brandon Brown on #edtech in #prisons. #reentry #2022NCHEP
Brandon Brown says that increased Pell eligibility means that we’ll have to increase the use of technology in #higheredinprison prisons. “We have to open up spaces for DOCs to bring in technology that 1) makes them uncomfortable and 2) historically is not trusted.” #2022NCHEP
