I think everyone should have the right to an education (including higher education), so I was very happy to find this news about a program to teach Math and Physics to incarcerated people: physics.aps.org/articles/v16/4
What depresses me a bit is the fact that, if I understand correctly, the people teaching in this program are all volunteer, meaning they are not paid for their job.
