Justice Management

As part of the College of Liberal Arts and School of Social Research and Justice Studies, the Judicial Studies and Justice Management Programs unequivocally reject white supremacy, racism and other forms of hate and bias. We work to dismantle racism and discrimination on campus, in our communities and in society as part of our shared efforts to elevate humanity and ensure equal access to justice for all. We combat these injustices through our scholarship and teaching in the areas of conscious and unconscious bias, cultural awareness, structural reform, diversity, equity and inclusion.
