I strongly believe that prison inmates should be allowed to take college courses, because when they get out of prison they can start their new life. According to statics I saw few weeks ago on Korean newspaper have mentioned that majority of the prisoners seems to repeat their crime when they get out of the prison. They just think it is a normal thing for them to do since they have already done once. I also saw many posters saying “once criminals are never to be forgiven.” This idea is wrong, what happened to all the teaching Buddha, Jesus and many other religions gave us, forgiving sins. People say they believe in them, but they do not follow their idea. I believe the inmates deserve to learn more things in the prison and start a new life when they come out of prison. It will not only be good for the inmates, but also for the country. It can also have negative effect, such as the inmates can gain more knowledge and cause even worse crime or the college system won’t even work in a prison since majority of the inmates are uneducated. As I mentioned, the majority of inmates seems to come back after they are free. They cannot do anything other than causing a crime to live out their livings. However, if the government is willing to provide them with free college education the amount of inmates will also decrease in a long term project. Everyone should be treated equally, even though they were once a criminal that does not mean all of them should live their life suffering from others fingers pointing at them or getting mistreated by them. I really think people should be forgiven at least once and should be allowed to start a new journey. For allowing the inmates to take college courses in prison will bring a brighter future to them.
