Learn About Opportunities with a Criminal<br />

Justice Degree!<br />

Information Session to be held at Azusa Pacific University Murrieta<br />

Regional Campus<br />

Attending an Azusa Pacific University<br />

(APU) Murrieta Campus information<br />

session is a terrific way to learn more<br />

about APU’s Professional Undergraduate<br />

Bachelor of Arts Degree in Criminal<br />

Justice.<br />

APU Murrieta Regional Campus is<br />

hosting a free Information Meeting on<br />

Wednesday, <strong>May</strong> 24, <strong>2017</strong>, from 6:00 pm<br />

– 7:30 pm at 40508 Murrieta Hot Springs<br />

Road (to the right of Sam’s Club). A light<br />

dinner will be served.<br />

This information session will cover<br />

key topics including: career opportunities,<br />

program information, admissions<br />

requirements, navigating the application<br />

process, financial aid opportunities, and<br />

important dates and deadlines.<br />

The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS)<br />

projects job growth from now until 2022<br />

in several occupations related to criminal<br />

justice, such as information security analysts,<br />

paralegals and legal assistants, private<br />

detectives and investigators, security<br />

guards and gaming surveillance officers,<br />

and criminal justice and law enforcement<br />

teachers. The BLS also projects several<br />

replacement positions available in law<br />

enforcement. This, coupled with the societal<br />

outcry for a fresh look at all aspects<br />

of the criminal justice system, makes this<br />

an exciting time to study criminal justice,<br />

and leaders are needed in all areas of this<br />

vital field.<br />

APU is a leading Christian university<br />

and continues to be recognized annually<br />

among the nation’s best colleges by U.S.<br />

News & World Report and The Princeton<br />

WASC) accredited. The APU Murrieta<br />

Regional Campus is proud to be a part of<br />

Hemet Teacher Sandra Turner Presented with March Teachers are Heroes Award<br />

Celebrating educators who go far<br />

above and beyond the call of duty,<br />

the Azusa Pacific University (APU)<br />

Teachers are Heroes program shines a<br />

spotlight on one of the most important<br />

professions…teaching! On Tuesday,<br />

March 21, <strong>2017</strong>, representatives from<br />

APU and KATY 101.3 “The Mix”<br />

recognized Diamond Valley Middle<br />

School teacher Sandra Turner as the<br />

March Teachers are Heroes winner.<br />

Turner was grateful as she accepted<br />

this special award. Diamond Valley<br />

Principal Robert Dominguez along<br />

with Turner’s students and husband<br />

were on hand to share this happy occasion.<br />

Mrs. Turner is currently a Language<br />

Arts and Honor’s Social Studies<br />

teacher. She has been teaching for 18<br />

years. Turner spent her first two years<br />

teaching Kindergarten and then taught<br />

middle school for 16 years, teaching<br />

many different subjects.<br />

Jacen Moore, one of her students,<br />

nominated Mrs. Turner and said, “I<br />

think she is our hero because she does<br />

community service to help others,<br />

and loves to teach her students in a<br />

positive way that make her students<br />

feel important. She also comes from<br />

a four-generation military family.”<br />

Jacen’s mother, Mrs. Moore, added,<br />

“Mrs. Turner has opened my son’s eyes<br />

to Social Studies and he is fascinated<br />

with ancient history.”<br />

Turner was awarded special prizes<br />

from The Mix Prize Closet and APU.<br />

Following the presentation, Turner and<br />

her class were treated to a pizza party<br />

provided by the Temecula Pizza Factory.<br />
