Comment on School board votes to restore Confederate names to schools in Shenandoah County - It Passed

These are pictures of a local shcool and a high security prison.
I guess I meant that that, looks like an American prison more than a school!

My highschool literally used the blueprints, with very few changes, from the local prison to build the school.
We had cell blocks for home rooms, and you’d just go between the four classrooms/cells within the block for the day, then another 4 the next day (so alternate classes on alternate days). No windows in most classrooms, just the cell blocks.
The hallways could all be monitored from a single central location, and it was riddled with security cameras.
The only things it didn’t have were the fence around the outside, guard towers, and bars. They even used the same color scheme, but in reverse. It was incredibly un-subtle and not a comfortable place to learn…

I wouldn’t commit crime to live there, but I wouldn’t mind paying rent to

If not for the social aspect of it I’d be on board also. I struggle to live that closely with others.
It’s the sort of thing I’d like to see done with existing abandoned malls, though. Might cost a bit to retrofit, but I think you could easily get away with shared facilities (bathrooms/kitchens) and separate living space, as long as it doesn’t cost a lot to live there. Make them communal living spaces that function as a whole indoor community.
