The problems involved in building genuine education programs and making them function as effective agencies in reforming the attitudes and habits of men and women who have rebelled in one way or another against social controls are numerous and complex. From the formulation of the philosophy and the establishment of objectives through the molding of the public opinion securing cooperation from institutional heads and personnel planning and organizing a program to devising techniques which will arouse and maintain the interests and efforts of the inmates the path of the prison educator is beset with problems as interesting as they are unique and puzzling.
