Della Scott-Ireton, associate director of the Florida Public Archaeology Network, is featured in Florida Currents Magazine for her work in maritime archaeology and public outreach.

The article highlights her role in studying and preserving Florida’s shipwrecks and helping make these sites accessible through education and the state’s underwater archaeological preserves. Often described as “museums in the sea,” these sites allow divers to explore history firsthand while reinforcing the importance of protecting shared cultural resources.

On Wednesday, April 8th, the Office of Compensation Court accepted an invitation from the Department of Criminology, Criminal Justice, and Legal Studies to hold court hearings in the Legal Studies Mock Trial Courtroom. Judge Jonathan Walker presided over the hearings, and litigants and attorneys appeared either in-person or via Zoom. Students were able to witness the court proceedings live. The ability to witness court proceedings on campus was an incredible opportunity to see the law in action. More importantly, students were able to take what they had learned in the classroom and apply it to understand what was happening in the courtroom.

Each attorney, as well as Judge Walker, took time after each hearing to speak directly with students about the practice of law. Special thanks go to Judge Jonathan Walker, Judge David Langham, and attorneys Brian Carter of the firm Michles & Booth, Mary Cruickshank, and Ferman Fernandez, all of whom generously donated their time to make this an enriched learning experience for students.
