About the Evergreen Prison Education Program
The Evergreen Prison Education Program (EPEP) makes Evergreen’s interdisciplinary BA degree available to scholars incarcerated in Washington State Corrections facilities.
EPEP's theme-based, inquiry-driven cohort model of experiential learning is anchored in a rigorous and responsive curriculum focused on critical thinking, scholarly agency, and the co-creation of knowledge.
EPEP’s interdisciplinary curriculum core offers the learning community an immersive foundation in the liberal arts and sciences, while the electives make it possible to narrow the focus in response to emergent student interest and need.
