K’Lee’s experiences in the Criminal Justice program are helping her prepare for her desired career in corporate law.

“The professors actively encourage discussions on critical issues like victimization, the death penalty, and challenges within our court systems. They also take us out of the classroom to tour critical areas of the field, such as correctional facilities and courtrooms, where we observe real courtroom procedures.”
