Abstract
The Prison to College Pipeline Program was founded in 2014 by Dr. Patrick E. Alexander and Dr. Otis W. Pickett. Through prior research and teaching experiences (in prison and at universities), they understood the profound role that student-centered prison education has played not only in reducing recidivism, but also in positively transforming isolated prison environments and the post-imprisonment outlooks and outcomes of imprisoned students. This report documents their efforts to bring literature and history courses to the Mississippi State Penitentiary at Parchman and the Central Mississippi Correctional Facility.
