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.

Here are the opportunities I'm aware of for the present term:
