Book cover for Liberty’s Prison by Randall Liberty and Christine Graf. The cover shows a man in a suit seated inside a green-painted prison cell block with metal stairs and railings behind him. Large white title text reads “Liberty’s Prison,†with the subtitle “The Inmate’s Son Who Radically Reformed an American Prison.â€

President Cushman invites students, staff, and faculty to a special event celebrating the release of Liberty’s Prison: The Inmate’s Son Who Radically Reformed an American Prison by Randy Liberty, chair of the UMA Board of Visitors, UMA faculty member, and a longtime leader in prison education reform.

The program will feature a moderated conversation and panel discussion exploring Liberty’s personal journey and the life-changing impact of education within correctional settings, followed by a book signing. The event will also highlight Âé¶¹APP Prison Education Partnership and its work to expand access to higher education for incarcerated and formerly incarcerated students across Maine.

Reflecting Âé¶¹APP mission of Transforming Lives, this event shows what is possible when education is accessible, meaningful, and rooted in opportunity.
