Professor Morris Named Jurist of the Year
Distinguished Professor Karen Morris of the Business/Economics Department was awarded Jurist of the Year by the Monroe County Bar Association. The award is conferred by a committee of her peers consisting of judges and lawyers. Among the grounds for the award is her development of Ticket2Ride, an organization that raises money for bus passes for indigent, justice-impacted individuals. The passes enable the recipients to attend court, meet with their parole or probation officers, and participate in addiction treatment. The goal is fewer bench warrants, better use of law enforcement resources, and avoidance of unnecessary jail nights.
