Over the course of this class, I have been struggling with managing life and school. I slacked off last term and got behind on my courses and I ended having to repeat one. I have learned from that experience. I am worried that the two weeks we have off for Christmas break that when we return I may slack off some also. In my topic, how prisons deal with mentally ill inmates I have found all the policies but not what actually happens. My husband who works for a prison told me what actually happens with them but since I cannot use him as a reference I cannot use him information. If anybody finds some articles to help me, feel free to share them.

Hi Miranda,
ReplyDeleteI found this blog that seems to share what actually happens to the mentally ill in prison. As long as you have other academic articles, you can use a source like this blog to cite examples.

This article looks like an interesting source:

This Frontline video is a good source and should be interesting to watch. I would consider Frontline as a credible source.
