A Making a Difference Event

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.
