1 in 100 adults are behind bars.  Okay, admittedly this has little to do with technology, or education, but I can’t help but wonder if there isn’t a better way than locking up so much potential.  Will these numbers improve when our students are adults, or only accelerate? What else could be done with the funds it takes to imprison someone that could help them be a productive member of society?
