Week 4 Assignment 1
Background Information/Scenario:
During your studies at Monroe College, you are taking classes to learn about your major course of study as preparation to enter your future career. As you progress in your major, you probably read about incidents in print/online newspapers or magazines, and sometimes these incidents make you question decisions/policies within your future industry. When you learn about these incidents you think to yourself: “this could have been prevented”, “it could have been handled better”, “why don’t they develop a policy to prevent this from happening?”, “isn’t there a more efficient way to handle this?” – the list of questions is endless.
For example, as a criminal justice major you may have read articles about domestic violence victims who refuse to press charges against his/her abuser and then are murdered. Maybe you thought to yourself: “why wasn’t the abuser arrested even though the victim didn’t want to press charges”? Your thought process actually questions police policy.
