Assignment 1: LASA 2: Prisoner Data Analysis **FOR SOLUTIONS
PRO**
As part of the criminal justice process, corrections play a
very important role for society and public policy. You will become
familiar with the trends in local, state, and federal prison
populations for the period of 2000–2008. If you desire a career
in corrections, you will gain knowledge to help you be better
prepared when entering into the corrections workplace. If you are
not opting corrections as a career, you will still gain a
foundational knowledge of the data used to drive policy decisions
in this critical criminal justice entity.

2009), you will produce a 10-page paper (title page, abstract, 7

prison population that you will experience in your new role as
deputy director of your state’s Department of Public Safety and
