FIRST-YEAR OPERATIONAL REPORT OF THE POLICE SCIENCE AND ADMINISTRATION PROGRAM INSTITUTED AT THE COLLEGE OF THE VIRGIN ISLANDS IN JANUARY 1968.

Abstract

THE PROGRAM, DEVELOPED PRIMARILY FOR PERSONNEL IN THE DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC SAFETY, ENCOMPASSES BOTH ASSOCIATE DEGREE AND NON-DEGREE CURRICULA AND IS CONDUCTED AT THREE CAMPUSES - ST. JOHN, ST. CROIX, AND ST. THOMAS. THIS REPORT PRESENTS DETAILS OF THE FIRST YEAR'S STAFFING AND SCHEDULING, AND OUTLINES THE CURRICULA OFFERED AND THE CONSEQUENT PROBLEMS ENCOUNTERED. THE PROGRAM MAKES A SPECIAL CONTRIBUTION TO THE ISLANDS BY INCLUDING A HIGH SCHOOL EQUIVALENCY COURSE AND BY HELPING TO FOSTER HIGHER EDUCATION ON THE ISLANDS THEMSELVES RATHER THAN THE MORE TRADITIONAL 'MAINLAND EDUCATION'.
