Sociology of Crime Class News:
Here are a few pictures from our field trip to the NW Family Foods Center/Foodshelf.
16 students and two staff members participated in the field trip activity. Many thanks to the BFA faculty, staff, and students for their donations. We were able to fill up and deliver two grocery carts of provisions.
The students worked very hard to stack and organize provisions for about 50 minutes. They also engaged in an orientation activity about the Champlain Valley Office of Economic Opportunity and held a brief group discussion about poverty, hunger, and crime.

Lisa Pepe was here to discuss the restorative justice center with our sociology of crime class and how the practices of restorative justice can be applied to the American criminal justice system.
Tim Smith and Chip Sawyer were here to discuss with our American experience students how our westward expansion compelling question, ‘does growth always lead to progress?’ is relevant to the growth and progress to the Downtown St. Albans developments.
We would like to express thanks to our guest speakers as well as the importance of involving the community in the classroom.
