CJC1000 Intro to Corrections, class discussion

/in /by

In 1994, Bill Clinton signed a law that prohibits inmates in state
and federal prisons from receiving Pell Grants. President Obama
authorized an experimental program to allow certain colleges to apply on
behalf of inmates for Pell
Grants and attend college courses while incarcerated. The money goes
directly to the college for the cost of tuition and fees.

  • What are the pros associated with allowing inmates to be eligible to receive Pell Grants again?
  • What are the cons associated with allowing inmates to be eligible to receive Pell Grants again?
  • Do you think the Trump administration should offer continued
    support for this experimental program.

Explain using research and
data.

Response should be at least 300 words plus references APA format.
