In 1973, the School of Criminology was established to offer degree programs at the bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral levels in criminology. Dr. Eugene Czajkoski, a criminology faculty member receptive to both research and practice, was the School's Founding Dean. Czajkoski served as Dean of the School from 1973 until late 1986. In 2012, Eppes Hall, under the direction of Thomas Blomberg, dean of the College of Criminology and Criminal Justice, underwent a $3 million transformation. Central air conditioning, state-of-the-art technology in the classrooms, and collaborative learning environments, to name a few, were included in the master plan. In 2013, 95 years after first opening its doors to students, Eppes Hall became the new home to one of Florida State University’s highest ranked academic programs, the College of Criminology & Criminal Justice. In 2014, the College of Criminology and Criminal Justice won the 2014 Tallahassee/Leon County Historic Preservation Award for outstanding achievement in the Civic/Community Resource Preservation category for the renovation of Eppes Hall. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Florida State University College of Criminology and Criminal Justice」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
