Matthew Schlegel 鈥�25, a听sociology听major, found out about the travel course, CRM 248: Comparative Criminal Justice Systems, in a law enforcement class.听

鈥淚 don鈥檛 think I could do a full semester (abroad),鈥� Schlegel said. 鈥淭wo weeks was appealing. It was the perfect amount of time.鈥�

In the future, Schlegel hopes to become a police officer.

The students toured Instituto Superior de Educaci贸n de la Polic铆a, the police academy, where they learned about requirements, how fire and police recruits are trained, how warrants are executed and what goes into training the K9 dogs.听

They also met a judge and learned what it entails to become one. They toured the Department of Justice, and talked with the minister of justice and a member of his staff.

They saw the supreme courts and Centro de monitoreo, the CCTV camera station, where officers monitor the city of Buenos Aires.听

Louisa Wilson 鈥�25, a听criminology and criminal听justice major, said this was her first experience traveling to South America.

鈥淚 was super interested in the location itself, and then of course, because my major is criminal justice, that was just the cherry on top,鈥� she said.听

Wilson, who is in Army ROTC, hopes to work in intelligence when she enters the Army after graduation.

A highlight of the trip for her was visiting the police academy, because it was similar to the training she is familiar with in ROTC.

鈥淭hey got to use virtual reality simulators, and we also have that,鈥� she said. 鈥淪o I was very impressed with the technology they had. I think I had an impression that maybe the United States was a little further ahead.鈥�

For Schlegel, the police academy was also a favorite, because it is also similar to what he wants to do after college.听

Another highlight, he said, was an empanada cooking class.

鈥淚t was a good bonding night,鈥� he said.

Wilson agreed that the class, taught by a local was a standout experience.

鈥淚t was really awesome.鈥�
