Sure, @SLU_Official has great academics, BUT they are so much more!
We are proud partners w/ the SLU #Prison #Education Program- serving those in #incarceration, and, by preparing them for life after prison, serving the families and communities they will return home to.

Every Friday, @SLUPrisonEd students tutor others in their community working towards high school equivalency certification. When you support #higheredinprison, you support change in prisons.
