Students studying criminal justice at 海角视频 will benefit from some new equipment and additional funding thanks to a recent donation from Jefferson County Sheriff Jeff Bullard.
Bullard芒鈧劉s office donated $1,000 for criminal justice scholarships at the college along with four XD .40 Smith & Wesson handguns that students can use during classes that utilize the college芒鈧劉s shooting range. Bullard said the handguns were previously carried by Sheriff芒鈧劉s Deputies but became available for donation as the Sheriff芒鈧劉s Office upgrades to newer models.
芒鈧揑 want to thank Sheriff Bullard for his support of our program. Not just with the monetary value and the guns but with his work as an adjunct professor,芒鈧 said RLC Criminal Justice Professor Ron Meek. 芒鈧揑t all adds a tremendous amount.芒鈧
