Franciscan University recently issued the following announcement.
The Franciscan University Criminal Justice Program will hold two continuing education courses, one for law professionals and one for police officers, on Friday, March 25, to cover
topics on law, ethics, religion, civil discord, politics, and policing in the United States.
In “Law, Ethics, and Religion in America,” Kevin Govern, professor of law at Ave Maria School of Law, will discuss how the unchanging moral directives of natural law should
influence a lawyer’s practice. The course will run from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Registration is $149.
In a course for police, law enforcement, and justice professionals, former NYPD detective Bob Matthiessen will address “Civil Discord, Politics, and Policing in the U.S.” Bringing
his own experiential record into play, he will talk about the defund police movement, the politicization of policing functions, and new approaches to police community relations. The
course is from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Registration is $129.
Both courses will include a breakfast and light lunch and will be held at Franciscan University of Steubenville in the St. Joseph Center. For more information and to register online,
