Massachusetts Correctional Institution at Norfolk, or MCI-Norfolk, is a medium security prison in Norfolk, Massachusetts with an average daily population of 1500 inmates. Though it is rated medium security, it also houses up to 98 maximum security inmates. Opened in the early 1930s, MCI-Norfolk is the largest state prison in Massachusetts. One of the notable inmates of MCI-Norfolk was Malcolm X, who was also a member of the Norfolk Debating Society while incarcerated. MCI-Norfolk is under the jurisdiction of the Massachusetts Department of Correction. ==History==
MCI-Norfolk was originally founded in 1927 as the Norfolk Prison Colony, a "model prison community"〔Johnsen, Thomas C., ("Vita: Howard Belding Gill: Brief Life of a Prison Reformer: 1890-1989" ), Harvard Magazine, September–October 1999, p. 54.〕 conceived by sociologist and penologist Howard Belding Gill (Harvard 1913, M.B.A. 1914), who was appointed its first superintendent in 1931.〔Conrad, John P., "A Lost Ideal, a New Hope: The Way toward Effective Correctional Treatment", ''Journal of Criminal Law and Criminology (1973-)'', Vol. 72, No. 4 (Winter, 1981), pp. 1699-1734.〕 Gill was dismissed in 1934 after an escape by four inmates, and replaced by his deputy Maurice N. Winslow, who served as superintendent from 1934 to 1950. The name of the prison was changed to the Massachusetts Correctional Institution at Norfolk in the mid-1950s. During the 1950s, the Norfolk Debating Society, a team consisting of prison inmates, beat a number of university teams including the Oxford Union at Oxford University.
