Dear students,

In our second week of class, we will attempt to understand deeper what we mean when we talk about crime. We will also define criminology as a discipline and go over multiple ways we can approach crime from theoretical perspectives. Criminology is the science of crime and criminal behavior. We will explore the history and emergence of criminology and outline how the field has continued to develop. Please study the materials in Week 2 unit and participate in the discussion. You should also be working on Short Assignment 1, which is due on September 25th.

I will have my office hours this week today and Thursday, in the morning. Stop by my office, N656. Or email me to find a mutually convenient ZOOM meeting time.

You can also email me or comment underneath this announcement.
