NYU initiative to bring college education to incarcerated students at Wallkill Correctional Facility

New York University has launched an initiative to bring college education to incarcerated individuals at the Wallkill Correctional Facility, a medium-security prison in New York State's Ulster County. Backed by a $500,000 grant from the Ford Foundation, NYU's Prison Education Program offers credit-bearing, university courses that will enable students to earn an Associate of Arts degree from the university.
