For once, I want to hear the opinions of all of you. Wardens, inmates. I don't particularly care which. What do you consider necessary for graduation? Where's the bar that your inmate has to reach? That you think you have to reach as an inmate?

While I've spent most of my life dealing in moral ambiguity, the spectacularly difficult task of identifying just what makes graduating possible is beyond me. It seems to be like some variety of mirage, which you spend all your time following in the hope that one day someone will declare you standing in the middle of it. It's an impossibly frustrating target.

This isn't a criticism of you. I just want to know what they think.

I don't have tantrums. And Eames is well equipped to deflect such petty complaints.

Your so called common sense is based on yours of study and research. The fact that you don't acknowledge that is disturbing to me.

I don't need years of study and research to say that fear is a strong motivator in how people act. You see it, you experience it, it's common sense. It's also common sense that fear isn't the strongest motivator in how people act. You see people doing things in spite of fear all the time. From simple things like a kid telling the truth when they know it means getting in trouble, to men risking their lives to run into a burning building.

Common. Sense. And I didn't even need a doctorate to point that out.

Yes, for a layman's understanding. If you'd done actual clinical research in the area I'd be more interested in hearing your opinions.

Common sense means instinct. You can point it out, but you can't understand it.
