This article discusses the impact of the presence of Correctional Officers in the Inside-Out Prison Exchange classroom. The Inside-Out model brings “traditional” college students together with students who are incarcerated for a shared learning environment and experience. In most cases, Correctional Officers are not in the room where the class occurs; however, this article discusses the drawbacks and benefits that can result from having Officers in the classroom. Given the structured power dynamics in a correctional facility, Officer presence and engagement in the classroom would seem to inherently go against many of the circle practice elements (such as trust, vulnerability, and safety from retaliation) that are vital in the Inside-Out model. While those elements are still at risk in certain facilities, we argue that Officer presence may have a negligible and potentially positive effect on student experience, and has a positive effect on the Officers. In this paper we do not argue that the Inside-Out model should evolve to include Officers; rather, we are suggesting that given instructor capacity and relationship with the facility, required Officer presence can not only be managed to have minimal negative impact for those most vulnerable, but can be used to enhance existing learning outcomes and create new ones.
