Ryan Fortson

“It was nice to be able to meet with students outside of a classroom setting where we could both be more informal. Hopefully as more students start returning to campus, these kinds of interactions will become more frequent.â€

— Ryan Fortson, Ph.D., Legal Studies Program Coordinator

 


 

Rob Henderson

“Welcoming back students outside of the classroom was a blast. It was energizing to reconnect with students in person, on campus, and outside of the classroom, especially after the summer break. It’s always fun to see the Justice Center community together.â€

— Rob Henderson, J.D., Assistant Professor and Society of Law & Justice Advisor
