My time in the Criminal Justice course taught me critical information about the procedures and history of the United States Law enforcement. I am very grateful to my professor, Dr. George Ackerman, for his encouragement and direction in this class. I found Dr. George Ackerman's instructions clear and easily understandable, which I greatly appreciate. The students in my class were very kind but, at the same time, interested in difficult conversations, which was a welcome surprise.
