The School of Police Administration and Public Safety emerged as one of the three pioneering schools in the United States. Through leadership and achievement, the School of Police Administration and Public Safety transformed into the School of Criminal Justice, maintaining tradition while building toward the future through discovery, innovation and growth. Today’s School of Criminal Justice remains the single justice focused educational program that can trace its professional and intellectual history back to the 1930’s.

Although tradition is important, it is even more important that the School continue its leadership role in criminal justice. However, to succeed we need alumni and friends to help us continue the tradition and excellence we have all come to know.

Please join us by contributing to one of the many scholarship or endowment funds below that enhance our ability to stay a leader in the criminal justice field.
