I worked with a guy who said he was one semester from finishing his degree but never finished it. I said “you should go back and finish it!” and he replied “dude, I was working on that degree in prison, I’m not going back to finish it!”
I guarantee you he was offered little to no transitional support when he left prison, which plays a reason why a lot of people don’t finish the degrees they worked on in prison. Trash system and then supporters of it have the nerve to blame incarcerated people for not magically improving their lives like [exception to the rule].

Can’t he transfer to a campus without bars on the windows?
Yeah, and that’s what I said next. That wasn’t the funny part of the story though.
