College Behind Bars: Lessons from the US Bard Prison Initiative
The University’s School of Social Sciences is pleased to invite you to our virtual Making a Difference event:
College Behind Bars: Lessons from the US Bard Prison Initiative, a documentary and Q&A about one university’s 20-year struggle to provide tuition-free, full-time higher education to incarcerated students.
This 90-minute seminar shares Bard’s Emmy-award nominated documentary, College Behind Bars, which takes an intimate look at the lives and experiences of a dozen Bard Prison students and their families. College Behind Bars confronts and challenges conventional wisdom about the purpose of both education and incarceration.
