While I understand your desire-- frankly... some things can only come with graduation.

The limited ability to govern his own life and the limited trust we invest, well... That's part of being an inmate. I don't know what he's done and I'm not casting judgments there. But the average criminal does not often come here as an inmate, and that's why they're not treated as such, but there are still divisions to be made and lines drawn.

Standing shoulder to shoulder with wardens, as opposed to being part of the inmate population, including the supervised workers among the inmates, is probably not a good precedent to set. He'll get it when he's earned it through working on whatever his issues may be, as opposed to being given it by his warden.
