As a Darden applicant, this made my cry. If I’m accepted, I’ll absolutely jump at the chance to participate in this initiative. What an important way to challenge assumptions in our society.
This man is being the change. He is directly contributing to your safety. He is teaching felons how to put down a gun and to pick up an honest trade that will help make America safer.
This man is a doer. There's a lot of talkers and complainers but this man sees a problem and does something about it and I respect that. I love that he is very bold and straight forward with his questions. He asks good questions. He thinks about things around him and ask questions asks questions in an attempt to improve things. And then he asks those questions to others and it makes them think about things and and how to improve things in THEIR lives. He talks about what he's doing for a specific problem but he also is trying to get other people to care, to think about what they can do about something in the world around them. Basically he's trying at the same thing that John F Kennedy was when he said "Ask not what your country can do for you but what can you do for your country?" He's getting a little bit more specific though. What can you do for the people around you? Your community. What is it that you like? What it is that your likes could be used to do as a job/career? What are you doing with what you have? And does it have a good useful purpose for the people around you? After all we get paid for jobs because what we do is needed/wanted by people.
I applaud this man for his contribution to his program of teaching in prison the programs he is so highly credible for HOWEVER! I think that these programs to which he and his faculty teaches in prisons should be tot outside the prison - Specifically in High schools. The stepping stone level of a persons life that sadly - besides Math, Social Studies and Science (to name a few) are not being tot in school. Prepare people for the world outside of academic school and their probability of incarceration will diminish.
If what Fairchild says is true; should he not be teaching people inside and outside of prison as a volunteer to make sure they never reach prison in the first place.
Very Sad. A person makes mistake, pay's his debt to society. Goes on probation; finishes probation and wants to make a contribution to society, but is not giving an opportunity to turn his life around. SAD COMMENTARY to this country. PRISON PLANET is what we are creating.
Slanted somewhat, but overall a good message. This will probably end your academic career but National Review recently had a piece that says essentially what you have espoused. Good luck. I hope you already have tenure.

What a beautiful soul he is.
Loved this talk. Great job, Greg!
I could listen to this man for hours

speaking of which: teach, taught, taught. You're welcome.
Teach outside of prison like you said that's true. What he's doing in prison they will listen more than students will outside.

FYI: He has tenure and his career is going VERY well.
