Criminology

Lecture on Hypnotically Refreshed Testimony

Discussion: Should hypnosis, and similar techniques, be used in the criminal justice system? Why or why not?

I hope all of you have found someone to interview for your project. If you are still having trouble locating someone, I may be able to arrange something for you. Please come to me after class with questions or concerns.


Death and Dying

Lecture on Euthanasia

Discussion: Considering the ramifications personally as well as socially, do you believe people have the "right to die"? Should people be able to choose when to end their lives absolutely, should there be laws that allow only physician-assisted suicides and how should they be written if so, or should no one be able to make that choice for themselves?

And for your information, you will be having a final exam. Please begin reviewing your course materials. A study guide will be made available at a later date.
