EXTRA CREDIT: In all but my INI courses, you can receive extra credit for attending campus
or other presentations that are relevant to sociology or criminology. You can
get up to 5 points of credit by writing up a brief (1-2 page report), summarizing
the presentation and your reaction. There's a limit of 10-15 points total(depending
on the class--see the syllabus), and if a presentation isn't on my list, you
should get my approval before attending.
