IUPâs department of criminology and criminal justice honored three alumni and invited them to speak about their successful careers to students.
It was a historic event for this department as three alumni were recognized with Distinguished Alumni Awards, receiving the highest honor given by IUP annually.
Of 150,000 alumni, only 369 have received the award before, which is less than 0.3 percent of alumni.
With more than 100 participants in attendance, the speakers discussed careers and gave advice for around 10 to 12 minutes, leaving questions from the attendees for the end.
As a 1986 IUP graduate, Retired U.S. Chief Deputy Marshal Michael Baughman spoke first.
