Articles of interest include "Women Graduates from IRJC'S Police Academy". A woman named Fonda Doane, despite the author's emphasis on her feminine qualities, becomes the first woman to graduate from IRCC Policy Academy dominated by men. In spite of her being an outlier in class, she enjoyed it with some embarrassing moments and dirty jokes. In 1972, only 2% of all police officers and sheriffs across America were females. Female police officers in the 1970s experienced gender stereotypes and sexual harassment. There were some who battled hard to earn their respect which shined a light upon them to encourage more women to become officers. In 1973, a woman named Fonda Doane became the first woman to graduate from IRJC Police Academy despite the stereotypes and sexist comments. With her and other brave police officers being an example, hopefully, more will pursue this career soon. Now the percentage of females in the force is 13% which is not a drastic boost, but it is improving.Summary written by Malik Girondin, in Dr. Carrigan's AMH 2020 H2SL (Honors/Service Learning).

" A former student from IRJC, Jim Ross, wrote an open letter to Mr. Molnar, an Indian River Junior College professor. He talk about his regretful decision to drop out of school to fight the Vietnam War. In the Vietnam war, the United States was involved since 1959 when it sent advisers to support South Vietnam. The United States became involved in this war in 1964 with the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution. According to the U.S. Department of Veterans affairs "Approximately 2.7 million American men and women served in Vietnam. During the war, over 58,000 U.S. military members lost their lives and 153,000 were wounded. There were 766 prisoners of war of which 114 died in captivity." The United States used the draft throughout the second half of the sixties through the early seventies. Summary and historical context written by Laura Carrascal , in Dr. Carrigan's AMH 2020 H2SL (Honors/Service Learning).
