This past summer, Elisabeth traveled to the Netherlands as part of the “Dutch Criminal and Social Justice” faculty-led program offered through the College of the Liberal Arts. Over the span of five weeks, Egeli examined the Dutch and American approaches to social problems and criminal justice alongside her classmates and Tim Robicheaux, full teaching professor of sociology and criminology, who has been leading the program for several years.
