Quote: "My teaching career in the Department of Criminal Justice is
interesting and exciting. Our students are highly receptive to the
continuously improving program curriculum. Nothing is more gratifying
for me than seeing my students critically understand social life and
make positive contributions to our society. The intellectual vitality of
my colleagues, faculty accessibility to students, and dynamism of the
curriculum are the hallmarks of our Criminal Justice Program at Kutztown
University."
