How did you get into that? It's something I would love to do but I never knew how or if you could volunteer to just do a single course, if you'd have any sort of support, etc.


The college I worked at had a few classes at the prison. I was an adjunct and agreed to do it. None of the tenured faculty would do it. Didn’t really have any support. Did wear a body alarm. One way the body alarm would be activated was if it was horizontal for more than 3 seconds.


Not the poster, but I taught a computer science class in prison. I did it through a college which operates a degree granting program in the state prisons (in addition to normal college operations).

Most of the professors were paid, I did it as volunteer work.
