VGCC Criminal Justice Students complete service projects


Criminal Justice Technology students at Vance-Granville Community College recently completed a pair of service projects, as they prepare for careers that involve giving back to their communities.

In a separate project, students collected, packaged and delivered bags full of candy as special Halloween treats for children at the Central Children’s Home in Oxford and for residents of local nursing homes. Supervising both initiatives was Capt. Tony Clark, a Criminal Justice instructor and an advisor for the Criminal Justice Club.
