Symone Arends, a senior forensic science major from Lincoln, shines an ultraviolet light onto the floor, searching for body fluids and fibers that glow when viewed through an orange filter.
Arends is working a mock crime scene in a basement room in Filley Hall as part of a Forensic Science 485 capstone project. The course is divided into two options for students: a crime scene investigation track that works the mock crime scene, and a biochemistry track that processes samples and evidence collected. The class concludes with a mock trial.
The forensic science program is offered through the University of Nebraska–Lincoln's Institute of Agriculture and Natural Resources.
