A course at Harvard University set to examine the effectiveness of the Counter Criminal Continuum (C3) Unit of the Springfield Police Department has been canceled following a student petition.
“Over the last few days, several concerns have been expressed online about a new course – ENG-SCI 298R: Data Fusion in Complex Systems: A Case Study,” wrote Francis J. Doyle III dean of the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering & Applied Sciences (SEAS). “I am writing to let you know that this course will not be offered this semester.”
