previous convictions should not interfere with their professional or educational performance. if they do, it should be dealt with according to the institution's disciplinary policy

If the purpose of serving a prison sentence is corrections/rehabilitation, and the person served their time, it is inhumane to bring up past convictions of crimes that they have already committed and served their time for when they are looking for a job or schooling to further their future. If there is no escape of prior actions then what is the point of prisons in the first place? As of right now with the prison system, you serve your time, and then you should be free to rebuild your life without the shackles of a prior conviction that you already answered to.

I think it should depend on the severity of the crime. You should have the right to know if you are about to hire a person with a history of violent crime.

If someone has served their sentence, they deserve to start a new. Having to report felonies is much more likely to decrease ability of released prisoners to get jobs. W no job, I would suspect (but don't know) if recidivism rates go up. Thus, what have u accomplished. Additionally, people should not continue to be punished when they have served their time.

The point of incarcerations is reform. If someone is released from prison, they should no longer be affected by their sentence.

I think this is necessary but only in extremely specific and limited circumstances. While I do not think that universities or companies should be able to ask if you generally have any prior convictions, I do think they should be allowed to ask about specific convictions diirectly related to the employment/position and that might impact the safety of others (example: a job involving consistent interaction with children asking about prior convictions of sex crimes related to children)

It's just a way to discriminate, and often has racist, ableist, and classiest effects.

When a sentence is served that consequence is over & should not affect their strive to have employment
