“I tend not to believe people. People lie. The evidence doesn’t lie.”
— Gil Grissom, CSI
Follow the evidence! Use forensic science techniques and problem solving skills to process mock crime scenes. We will practice hair analysis, blood typing and studies of blood spatter patterns, fingerprints, footprints, and other data analysis techniques. We will consider the human brain’s powers of observation and the fallibility of memory. In the final project, students will create their own mock crime scenes for their peers to investigate in this fun and deceptively academic June Term.
