Today, Tuesday April 24, my wonderful professor for both of my education classes was handcuffed out of the classroom and taken to “Jail and Bail.” This so-called “Jail and Bail” is a fundraiser to help raise money for the Special Olympics Connecticut. Jail and Bail is a one-day event where anyone can be sent to jail. This includes students, faculty, and staff can actually get placed into the “mock slammer.” This pretend jail is located in the middle of our campus outside. The person will have to face a judge where they set your bail. This amount of bail is set to a specific dollar amount that the volunteer is asked to raise by calling anyone he/she can. Students can submit warrants for their teachers but they do not have to go if they do not want to participate. Professor can also submit warrants for their students and again the students do not have to go. Any one who is unwilling to participate will not be arrested. These warrants cost $5 and could have been purchased at the SCSU police center. This is a great and fun event to raise money for a good cause and in many students favor class is let out early!
