Student Organizations
- Lambda Alpha Epsilon (LAE)
-
LAE is EKU’s student chapter of the American Criminal Justice Association. The main focus of LAE is to provide opportunities for students to advance their careers by networking with criminal justice and police professionals and learning more about the professions.
Members of LAE travel to yearly regional and national conferences where they participate in competitions against other criminal justice organizations, learn about the latest information in criminal justice and police studies, and meet with professionals in the field.
LAE’s activities include meetings twice a month, participating in campus events, hosting guest speakers from agencies like the FBI, ATF, DEA and Secret Service, and taking tours of police training academies, prisons and forensic crime labs.
