MGT 481  Correctional Concepts in Today’s Society

This course will examine corrections in our society and will focus on social values that determine how organizations and institutions respond to the segment of the community that is involved in corrections. Students will learn that in a democracy, corrections must operate not only in the framework of law, but also within the boundaries set by public opinion.  Two key assumptions run throughout the course.  One is about the nature of corrections as discipline; the other concerns the best way to analyze correctional practices:  Corrections is interdisciplinary, and corrections is a system. The course will examine both institutional and community corrections and will address recent policies designed to toughen punishment of offenders, including sexual offenders.
