This course will examine the justice process and the general operations of the criminal justice system. Concepts of crime and deviance, as well as individual rights and discrimination in a democratic society will also be reviewed and critiqued against the backdrop of contemporary issues. The law enforcement, judicial, juvenile justice, and corrections subsystems will be particularly explored, and a number of reform proposals presented and considered. Students will be expected to integrate material in their written assignments that they have learned throughout their college experience.
