Criminal justice students inducted into national honor society in Spring 2021 semester
In the Spring 2021 semester, 13 Concordia criminal justice students were inducted into Alpha Phi Sigma, the only national criminal justice honor society.
Students must complete the equivalent of three full-time semesters of course work, complete four criminal justice courses, major or minor in criminal justice or a related field, carry a 3.2 cumulative GPA and a 3.2 or higher within the criminal justice major or minor and be recommended by a faculty advisor. Dr. Kathy Miller, professor of sociology and Dr. Ed Hoffman, associate professor of criminal justice and director of the online criminal justice program, serve as faculty advisors of the Concordia chapter.
“These students exemplify the characteristics of leadership and service that Concordia wants for all our students,” Miller said. “Recognition of their achievements affirms their efforts and encourages other students in their vocations."
