Law and Justice

Advisory Board

The Law and Justice Advisory Board is comprised of 19 alumni and community partners. The board meets every two to three months on the west and east sides of the state. The board assists the Department of Law and Justice chair in a variety of ways. Most recently, the board worked with the chair on defining its role concerning the master of science law and justice. Many opportunities flow from these meetings, including contacts for internships and future job prospects for current students.

For more information on the Law and Justice Advisory Board contact Dr. Paul Knepper, Chair of the Department of Law and Justice at Paul.Knepper@cwu.edu or 509-963-3185.
