Attachments Our Department requires a single MiniPaper assignment the very first week of the course. The requirements are contained in the listing of Assignments and are very basic within a single page of quality writing that counts 5% of the final grade. This is not a research paper. This is a writing assignment to be based on a real world topic in our field of Correctional Administration. I have selected the incredible escape from the Clinton Maximum Security Prison in Danemora, New York that occurred in the summer, of 2015 (Escape: June 7th). This real world crisis situation involved two Lifers and the assistance they received from one or more staff members. It held New York State in a crisis that lasted a full 21 days. That is the subject matter for your writing assignment. Your writing assignment will focus on the escape and ethics within this prison that disgraced its management/administration and staff before the nation. We must learn from it just as we in Corrections learned a great deal from the infamous Attica Riot in far Eastern New York in 1971. News article on the Escape from Clinton Correctional Institution: http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/2015/07/04/prison-escapee-unfolded/29648113/ No other sources need to be reviewed. Minipaper is due without exception by February 10, 2019 at 11:59 PM. Please ensure you use the writing elements I supplied to you as an academic and professional courtesy in the Course Introduction and which are repeated fully in the Syllabus under Academic Writing. Add your mini paper under the Assignment Heading – not under this Discussion topic. It will be graded as a formal Assignment- your first of the course.
