Third graders got hands-on lessons in forensic science when students from Central Carolina Community College’s Harnett County Campus visited Bonnie Barefoot’s class at Apex Elementary School. The 10 biology students from instructor Scott Byington’s classes taught the children how to take and interpret fingerprints, do footwear analysis, examine soil evidence with a microscopic, and do chemical comparisons. In one activity, Central Carolina students Toby Cano (front), of Coats, and Angelina Judkins and Joshua Bussey (standing, from left), both of Dunn, help children compare shoeprints from a ‘crime scene’ with different suspects’ shoes. Several of the children said they are now thinking of becoming scientists. The other college students taking part in the forensic science activities were Dana Rogers, of Fuquay Varina; Shannon King, of Angier; Rebecca Cree, of Broadway; Aiesha Cruz, of Hope Mills; Nikki Watts, of Lillington; Delilishah Chance, of Dunn; and Rhonda Jordan, of Angier.
