On February 26, 2008, a member of the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (BCA) Science Laboratory will give a presentation to the public at St. Cloud State University’s Physics and Astronomy Seminar Series (PASS).
James Koch, a scientist at the BCA Laboratory, will give a one hour talk on the activities of the Lab, along with the science that is used by his department. Details about crime scenes and, perhaps, specific science investigations may be given.
Citizens in the St. Cloud area, along with SCSU students, staff, and faculty are specifically invited.
This presentation will be given February 26 in the Wick Science Building, room 116 at 7:00 pm.
