Criminal Justice

 

Based on the Catholic and Franciscan principles of peace and justice, this major will prepare you to pursue a career in criminal justice or other fields of public service. We begin with a belief in the innate goodness of humanity and the need for a just and equitable application of law in a democratic society.

 

As instructors, you will have professionals -- with experience in the courts, correctional system and law enforcement -- who know current trends, theories and practices. Our program will challenge you to think about:

• Corporate, high tech, and "victimless" crime
  
  
• The rights of the environment and the community
  
  
• The economic underpinnings of crime
  
  
• The consequences of genetic modification and drug therapy as rehabilitation
  
  
• Legal implications of stem cell research, cloning and euthanasia
  
  
• The effect of the legal system on rehabilitation
  
  
• Dozens of other issues relevant to the future of our criminal justice system
