Additional Details
In a time of national uncertainty regarding crime, accountability, and institutional legitimacy, Concordia University Wisconsin and its Justice & Public Policy (JPP) major are positioned as a significant academic voice by the Justice Summit 2026. The summit purposefully brings together senior decision-makers from law enforcement, prosecution, courts, corrections, and the media to engage students, faculty, staff, and the public in rigorous, unscripted dialogue during a period when public trust in the justice system is severely damaged.
