Welcome to the Introduction to Criminal Justice Course 

Hi, everyone. Welcome to CJ 1301: Introduction to Criminal Justice. I am Chief of Police Rickey George, and I will be your instructor for this course. I warmly welcome all of you and encourage you to post a brief informal greeting in the "Personal Introductions" discussion forum. This will let me know that you've received my welcome message and also give you a chance to introduce yourself to your fellow classmates.

This course aims to provide you with an introduction to the field of criminal justice, specifically offering an overview of the American criminal justice system and its integral subsystems: including police, courts, juries, prosecutors, defense and correctional agencies. We will delve into the standards and methods employed in responding to crime and managing criminal offenders.

Our classes are scheduled to start on 01/17/2024. To access the course materials, please use your Sul Ross Blackboard user ID and password. The course syllabus and academic calendar have already been uploaded onto Blackboard. Kindly review these documents closely. If any questions arise, feel free to reach out via email.
