Monday Night Film Series

 

Please join us Monday evenings this semester for some great and thought-provoking films.   The series is free and open to the entire Temple University community.  All films are shown uncut and without interruption.  Selections include contemporary and classic films on topics relevant to crime and the criminal justice system, including gang and youth violence, capital punishment, violence against women, drugs and crime, the social construction of crime and justice, and prisoner re-entry.  There will be some time for discussion of the film afterward. 

 

All screenings will be held in Tuttleman 101 at 5:15 pm.
