After 20+ years of teaching, it is a remarkable experience to find your true teaching voice inside a maximum-security prison! Yet at Sing Sing prison in NY and at Graterford in PA, where currently I am teaching history for Villanova University, my experience has been reaffirmed over and over again. Both Mercy College in Dobbs Ferry, NY, and Villanova offer (privately funded) degree programs to the men in both prisons. Consistently the men in these highly selective programs are talented, dedicated and appreciative.
