I choose to do my web project about what I am interested in.  I am graduating this December with a Sociology/Criminology degree and I still am not sure what I want to do with it.  I really don’t think I want to be a police officer but who knows it could happen.  I really would like to go back to school and get a forensic science degree.  I love watching CSI and learning about the murders.  I also would like to better understand why people commit murders.  I also think that I could be a great FBI profiler, which is a very challenging and ever changing field. 

Ok, that enough about me, now on to my project.  I have chosen to examine to fields of law enforcement and how is has changed over time.  I don’t really know much about what happened in the past but this is why I am doing this project so that I can learn more about the history of Science and Law Enforcement procedures. I think that many people think law enforcement is just the police going out and arresting people and then those people being given a sentence.  Well as I have learned in my time at OU, law enforcement is so much more.  There are so many people behind the scenes like the correction officers that process everyday criminals and the CSI who investigated the crimes and try to explain the 5 w’s of every crime.

Ancient-Episode 1 is about Archimedes a very famous scientist and how he helped figure out that someone was committing a crime against the King.  He use what skills he had to discover that the king was being cheated by a blacksmith.  I will be going into more detail on what really happened and what made Archimedes so famous after this story.

Early Modern-Episode 2 is about The Great Vesalius and what he did for the study of anatomy and how he may have even straddled the line in committing a few crimes in order to get what he wanted.  He just his power to help him do human dissections, but how did he get to bodies for these dissections? That is the question I will answer

Medieval-Episode 3 is about The Amazing Mondino, and how he helped changed dissection anatomy.  I will explain what he really did to change dissection anatomy.
