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 />

and continues to be recognized annually<br />
among the nation’s best colleges by U.S.<br />
News & World Report and The Princeton<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 />

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 />

to Social Studies and he is fascinated<br />
with ancient history.”<br />
