Organizational Structure The debate regarding which form of protocol is more appropriate, custodial vs. treatment, is indeed one of the more controversial subjects in criminal justice today. Custodial treatment refers to the act of putting the convicted criminal in an institution of some sort, such as a jail or prison (hence the term, "custody"). Those who are in favor of this option stress the pros of this type of method, stressing that it is one of society's oldest forms of punishment: "When someone is sentenced to jail or prison, that individual is physically separated from society (the modern version of banishment- society's first form of punishment. In doing so, the person is quite literally deterred from committing any further crimes against the general public because (due to their incarceration) they simply no longer have physical access to the community" (Bayley, 2009). Bayley stresses one of the obvious advantages of custodial punishment which is that society has now regained control over the prisoner. Another advantage is that some argue that the prisoner in custodial custody also acts as a deterrent to others from committing the same crime. However, institutions are expensive to maintain, and drain the tax dollars and resources of society. Treatment organizations believe in the fundamental value of human life and believe that all human beings deserve a chance to become productive members of society, often taking into consideration the rough hand in life that many prisoners have been dealt, coming from backgrounds of untold abuse. The advantages of treatment organizations are that they can work; they can give former criminals...
High School Field Trips Students want field trips for all the wrong reasons. You know that, and I know that. But you also know the right reasons for field trips. I am using this letter to remind you of them with the hope that you will keep funds for school trips in the school budget. Simply put, field trips are an important part of education because they connect real life
Philosophy Field Trip Realism: A flower is a flower. Idealism: A flower is an ultimate idea. Pragmatism: A flower is what I take it to be. Existentialism: A flower exists for me Rationalism: A flower is this way for now. Realism is a development of the Platonic theory of Forms which stated that universals such as "red" or "man" have an independent, objective existence, either in a realm of their own or in the mind of
Ecology Field Trip The purpose of this field experiment was to determine the composition of the oak forest on and around Hubbard Hill, determining tree type frequency and size through a random sampling process. This is important for ecological purposes in determining the overall needs and structure of the oak forest ecosystem, at least insofar as different tree species are concerned, and for tracking levels of forest growth, loss, or change
The "Figure This: Math Challenges for Families" website, was a simple, bilingual website, that provided challenges and resources for families to work with together. The website employed cartoon characters, annotated solutions and real world applications to make mathematics attractive for the entire family. A challenge index and math index, juxtaposed the challenge with the relevant math concept. The final website visited was the "Circle 21" website. This website made use of
The area is of interest because it allows linguists to look into the variants of Middle English that influenced the current dialect. 3. The North Carolina Language and Life Project's study of Harkers Island, North Carolina is extraordinarily interesting, as it allows researchers to study a dialect that was formed independently of surrounding areas for nearly two centuries. Because the island was separated from the mainland until a bridge was
St. Patrick's Cathedral: Field Trip Patrick's Cathedral's design is not only original but also distinct. Its proportions are also evidently harmonious. With impressive twin spikes characterizing its west facade and enormous bronze doors ushering in visitors and worshipers alike, St. Patrick's Cathedral is every inch an architectural masterpiece. At the time of my visit last Friday at around 12:30 PM, there was an ongoing restoration and renovation exercise which as I was
