Is there supposed to be something unusual about this? "Since 1991, 4,600 inmates have graduated from college prison programs. But the number dropped drastically in the mid-1990s, when both state and federal governments eliminated grants to prisoners for college education." http://www.poughkeepsiejournal.com/projects/prison/po111700s1.shtml Bears' Guide has a whole chapter, "Advice for People in Prison". And are you aware that California has had a "'No Diploma, No Parole" policy since May 1998? http://www.cya.ca.gov/library/news/newpolcy.html
