Michael Jenkins, Ph.D. ’06, professor and chair of the Department of Criminal Justice, Cybersecurity and Sociology, served as project liaison for Robert S. ’68 and Marilyn A. Weiss Hall, The University of Scranton’s newest architectural gem.

“It’s a space that taps into the rich history of the work the University has done on campus and in the community,” Dr. Jenkins said in a Scranton Journal feature article about Weiss Hall. “It also addresses the future of higher education and the need for educational programs to be outward-facing and to serve their regions.”

In a video interview, Dr. Jenkins offers insight on the project, from groundbreaking to dedication, and shares a guided tour.
