CLASSIFICATION BOARD
29
One special facility that needs to be discussed separately so as to allow us to understand more fully is the death row where inmates will be released to another world if and when the sentence is carried out. Furthermore, the death penalty has sparked so much controversy not only in this country but worldwide. But considering the economic vulnerability of our country, the divisiveness posed by carrying out executions tends to aggravate and further divide our already divided society.
THE DEATH ROW

Was the brainchild of the late Dr. Cicero Campos whos was the first President of the Philippine Public Safety College (PPSC).

43
Which emphasizes prisoner obedience, work end education (Sahara 1988).
CONTROL MODEL OF PRISON MANAGEMENT
44
That stresses prisoners’ responsibility for their own action, not administrative control to assure prescribed behavior. Proper classification of inmates, according to this model, permits placing prisoners in the least restrictive prison consistent with security, safety, and humane confinement. Prisoners should be given a significant degree of freedom and the held to account for their actions (Sahara 1988).
RESPONSIBILITY MODEL OF PRISON MANAGEMENT
45
Based on the assumption that prisoners have been incarcerated for the protection society and for the purpose in incapacitation, deterrence and retribution. It emphasizes maintenance and security and order through the subordination of the prisoner to the authority of the warden. Discipline is strictly applied and most aspect of behavior is regulated.
CUSTODIAL MODEL
46
Security and housekeeping activities are viewed primarily as a framework for rehabilitation efforts. Professional treatment specialist enjoys a higher status than other employees, in accordance with the idea that all aspect of prison management should be directed towards rehabilitation with the rethinking of the goal of rehabilitation.
REHABILITATION MODEL
47
Is linked to the structures and goals of community corrections but has direct impact on prison operations. Although an offender is confined in prison, that experience is pointed toward reintegration into society. This kind of treatment gradually gives inmates greater freedom and responsibility during their confinement and move them into a halfway house, work release programs, or community correctional center before releasing them to supervision. Consistent with the perspective of community corrections, this model is based on the assumption that it is important for the offender to maintain or develop ties with free society the entire focuses this approach is on the resumption of a normal life (Clear and Cole, 1986).
REINTEGRATION MODEL
48
Is a place of residence and work where a large number of like-situated individuals, cut off from wider society for an appreciable period of time, together lead an enclosed, formally administered round life. Is one that completely encapsulates the lives of the people who work and live there. A prison must be such an institution in the sense that whatever prisoners do or not do begins and ends there; every minute behind bars must be lived in accordance with the rules as enforce by the staff.
TOTAL INSTITUTION
49
Says that nothing should be done, that prisoners should be allowed to become increasingly congested and staff should remain to maintain them with the assumption that the problem is temporary and will disappear in time.
NULL STRATEGY
50
Urge that expensive and limited prison space with the necessary number of staff to maintain them should be used more-effectively by targeting the individuals whose incarceration will do the most to reduce crime. It shows that the incarceration of some career criminals has a pay off in the prevention of multiple serious offenses.
SELECTIVE INCAPACITATION STRATEGY
51
Incorporates front door and back door strategies. Front door strategies divert offenders to non-incarcerative sanctions, among them, community service, restitution, fines, and probation. While the back-door strategies such as detention, parole, work release and good behavior are devised to get the offenders out of the prison before end of their terms in order to free space for new comers.
POPULATION-REDUCTION STRATEGY
52
Building new facilities to meet the demand for prison space for an advantageous prison management. The approach comes to mind when legislators and correctional officials confront the problem on prison crowding, sanitation and prison violence to expand the size, number of facilities and personnel.
CONSTRUCTION STRATEGY
53
Urges the sentencing be linked to the availability of prison space and management staff, the policies be developed allowing the release of the prisoners when prison facilities become crowded and staff are greatly outnumbered to manage prisoners, and that each court be allotted a certain amount of prison space and staff members so that the judges and prosecutors make certain decisions accordingly. This strategy depends on the political will to release prisoners even in the face of public protest (Clear and Cole, 1986).
POPULATION-SENSITIVE FLOW CONTROL STRATEGY
54
