Dr. Warren Dukes, assistant professor of Criminal Justice, has been appointed as a 2015-2016 member of the Board of Directors for the North Carolina Criminal Justice Association.

The North Carolina Criminal Justice Association was founded in 1971 with the mission of keeping members informed on current issues and serving as a voice for those involved in the criminal justice field. The organization continues this tradition by organizing conferences on contemporary issues for members, students, faculty and practicing professionals.

“This appointment reflects the respect Dr. Dukes’ peers hold for him across the state and the esteem of our criminal justice program,” said Dr. Zaphon Wilson, dean of the School of Social and Behavioral Sciences and professor of Political Science.
