Academic,Vocational Ed  \nBy Betty B.BosargeEditor,Washington Crime News Services  \nWhat is the solution to the problems of recidivismby parolees?Rep.John Conyers,Jr.(D-Mich.)andSen.Claiborne Pell(D-R.I.)think the problems canbe solved if the Federal Government gives a few million dollars to the states for correctional educationprograms for inmates.  \nTo accomplish this goal,they have introducedcompanion bills in the House and Senate which wouldprovide $25 million per year over a three-year periodfor inmate education programs,with an emphasis onvocational education and training.These programswould include basic education,transitional servicessuch as counseling and job placement,and coopera-tive programs with private industry for on-the-jobtraining.  \nThe program would be administered by theSecretary of Education and funds would be dis-tributed to state education agencies in all states usinga formula based on their inmate populations.Inaddition,the bills mandate that the funds be spentsolely on inmate education,a mandate which wouldbe closely supervised by the Secretary of Education.  \nThe House Bill,H.R.3684(The Federal Correc-tional Education Assistance Act)has 34 co-sponsorsincluding the two chairmen of the Subcommitteesunder whose jurisdiction the legislation falls.  \n(Continued on page two)  \nIN THIS ISSUE                \nINMATE

saidit is \"time for Congress to make a solid commitmentto inmate rehabilitation with the expectation thatupon release the great majority of inmates will haveacquired the skills,training and knowledge that willpermit them to be gainfully employed and to leadproductive lives in society.\"  \nHe said he is confident support for the legisla-tion will continue to grow,although the road is aittle bit rocky given the past history of Sen.Pell'sattempts to get the legislation through.Pell hasintroduced his bill(S.625)for the last three years,but this is the first time that he has obtained suchstrong support in the House.In previous years,hewas unable to obtain support from the Departmentof Education,but Corrections Digest has learnedthat this year DOE is providing \"some support.\"  \nThe bills are being pushed by Dr.Osa Coffey,executive director of the Correctional EducationAssociation(CEA),as well as by vocational educa-tion specialists from the Nebraska Department ofEducation,the Texas
