The Criminal Justice students participated in the American Society of Criminology in San Francisco, California in November. They presented findings from the EPIC Camden study in a paper that they co-presented, entitled, “It’s just a free-for-all out here.” Contextualizing Adolescent Strategies to Acquire Alcohol. They have been a vital part of the research team (collecting data, etc) and co-authoring papers with CURE affiliated scholars Stacia Gilliard Matthews and Robin Stevens.
