ADULT EDUCATION Beginning in 1965, the Visitation Room also served as Brushy's first Inmate Education Program classroom. Illiterate inmates were chosen by Warden Lake Russell (a former Carson-Newman College football coach and teacher) to be taught by Educational Director and future Warden, Stonney Lane. "The University of Brushy Mountain," paid inmates for taking classes in lieu of working and eventually expanded to include prison employees, as well.
