Lamar Institute of Technology (LIT) will host the "Who Dun It?" summer camp from July 22-25 for students entering the sixth through ninth grades. 

 

“The ‘Who Dun It?’ camp provides students with a hands-on approach to forensic science and criminal investigation,” said Arturo Rodriguez, LIT Coordinator of Continuing Education. “They can put on their crime scene investigation caps and delve into various aspects such as fingerprinting, bone examination, shoe print casting, blood spatter analysis, and more.” 

 

The camp will be held daily from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. and led by LIT criminal justice instructors Trazarra Stelly and Dennis White. The cost for the program is $140 per student and is offered at a 50 percent discount to siblings (up to two) and LIT employees.
