SCHOOL NOTES
Forensics Class Alumnus Presenter
Students participated in a hands-on Forensic Anthropology 101 training, thanks to a partnership with Pasco County Sheriff’s Office F1RST division. Our guest lecturer and trainer was Verot graduate Austin Polinitza, class of ’06. The training included how forensic anthropologists assist law enforcement with identifying bodies that may have been buried or decomposed to dry bones, as well as closed case studies. Students asked many questions about what his job entails and participated in lab stations putting their new knowledge into action.
