Academic/Student Affairs Surveying
Student Internship and Community Service Opportunities
The Offices of Student Affairs and
Academic Affairs are ready to launch
an exercise to inventory opportunities
for students to engage in internship or
community service. The inventory is
found
at
https://claytonstate.qualtrics.com/SE/?
SID=SV_6haviAU2ihUrW4c.
The inventory is simple and will not
take more than a few minutes. An indi-
vidual may fill out the inventory form
repeatedly if they have opportunities
for internships and/or community serv-
ice offered in more than one course or
program/service. Friday, Jan. 27 is the
absolute latest date the inventory form
will be available. The results as of that
date will be presented to the President’s
Cabinet, Faculty Senate, and other inter-
ested parties.
The mission of Clayton State is to culti-
vate an environment of engaged, experi-
enced-based learning, enriched by active
community service, that prepares students
of diverse ages and backgrounds to suc-
ceed in their lives and careers. This
inventory is being taken as an impor-
tant step in implementing the strategic
plan. The inventory will provide infor-
mation so energies can be strategically
focused to create additional opportuni-
ties.
Summaries of the inventory will be
available on or around Feb. 3.
Questions regarding this program
should be directed to Strategic
Planning Officer Jim Flowers at
JimFlowers@clayton.edu.
Dutch Detectives Visit Clayton State
Eleven experienced police detectives
from the Netherlands visited the Atlanta
area and Clayton State University last
week.
Clayton State Adjunct Professor of
Criminal Justice Dr. James M. Adcock
coordinated the visit as a follow-up to a
visit Adcock and his wife, Clayton State
Lecturer of Forensic Studies Sarah Stein,
made in July 2011 to the police academy
in the Netherlands, a visit predicated on
their book on cold cases that was pub-
lished in October 2010 by CRC Press.
While in the Netherlands, Adcock and
Stein helped the police academy integrate
their cold case evaluation model into the
academy’s advanced detective course cur-
riculum.
The Dutch detectives attended a series of
special lectures at Clayton State and visit-
ed police agencies throughout the region.
While at Clayton State, they heard about:
the American Legal System; Missing
Persons Programs/Protocols in the USA;
Developing a Victimology Report &
Suspectology Profiles; lectures on
Missing Children Investigations; inter-
viewing Witnesses and Suspects; and
Staged Crime Scenes.
Clayton State’s Homecoming (Feb. 18) to
make an official appearance.
As for Smith’s opinion on the mystery,
“while I have no way of truly knowing if
this can be tied to the other sightings
around campus, my gut feeling is that they
have to be related,” says Smith. “I will
leave the theories of what this may be to
those better qualified, like Chris Kodani.
All I know is the Loch Shop seems to
have a new supporter.”
