If someone with records of being a criminal in the past wanted to join a university/college, should he be allowed?
Yes: 1. He's paid his dues, why deny him an education? 2. Letting him learn may encourage him to be a better citizen. No: 1. He's a threat to other students on campus. 2. He may be a bad influence to others. I read a story about a man that wanted to join a university and lied about his criminal background. They didn't bother to check, so he was accepted and befriended a girl. They started dating, but after a while, he strangled her and choked her to death. And this happened TWICE. If they had denied the men from entering the university, those girls would still be alive. But do you think it's fair? What's your say? |

depends on the crime. if it was just a misdemeanor, like shoplifting or vandalism...then I think they should be allowed into a university. more serious crimes, like manslaughter, rape, molestation....No. Besides, some people who are in prison for years can have a sort of education while in prison.
