Description:

Credits 3 (3 Lecture Hrs/Wk) - Sp Crime literacy is focused upon questioning some of the basic assumptions that we have about crime and the criminal justice system in our country. Thus, we explore those assumptions and provide new light upon issues that have in some cases become distorted and inaccurate. This course is not designed to replace the general introductory sequence in criminal justice (CJA111-113). It is a companion piece to that series of classes. Those courses provide a general description of criminal justice, which sets the stage for the current discussion. Proficiency Needed: Reading, Writing.
