The removal of this barrier to an educational opportunity with the caveats described in the proposal provides a benefit to society and the physical therapy business sector. To bar an educational opportunity, especially one with such importance and limited employee pool, without any regard to the circumstances serves no purpose.  Changes to the judicial rehabilitation process such as this are long overdue. The continuously punitive nature of criminal prosecutions by excessively barring them from employment or education negates the entire concept of criminal reform and only harms society and the individual in the long run. It should definitely be voted into effect at the next opportunity.
