Dead Man Walking Learning Community
Crime, violence, justice, and redemption--these concepts provide the focus for this learning community. Why does crime happen? How should society deal with criminals? Is our system of justice the best that it can be? Students and faculty will discuss these important social questions from many perspectives, hear a variety of speakers, and participate in special activities, including readings of the play, Dead Man Walking, during regular class hours. |
