Bachelor's Degree               Degree 001

In 1992, I earned my undergraduate degree at Mercer University. Statistics show that prisoners who earn university degrees reduce recidivism rates and thus, according to Mr. Holder, “reduce the crime rate.” In 1995, I earned a graduate degree from Hofstra University. Statistics verify that those who earn graduate degrees during imprisonment have a recidivism rate that approaches zero.

MGS certificate0001Throughout my confinement, I’ve utilized my education as a resource by working with university professors and thousands of university students who use my published work, collaborating with them in an interactive dialogue through written correspondence, e-mail, my blog, and my Web sites.
