Last week Dr. LiVecchi's PSY 421 Forensic Social and Experimental class took a creative approach to educating for justice.

The students recognized that there was a need to share our academic information with the community, and they created "trivia" questions. When someone answered correctly they received a pin that stated "I know justice!", and either way they were given the information card.

The class shared information about Miranda rights, mental health treatment in corrections, the NGRI (not guilty by reason of insanity) plea, and information regarding help for those experiencing domestic violence.

Another group will be going out this week. Way to engage with the community!
