Associate Professor Peter Moskos of the Department of Law, Police Science and Criminal Justice Administration has been featured in a variety of print and broadcast media outlets to discuss policing as part of a growing national focus on police, race, and criminal justice reforms.

A former Baltimore City police officer, Moskos specializes in police culture, crime prevention, qualitative methods, and ending the war on drugs. His three books – Cop in the Hood, In Defense of Flogging, and Greek Americans (3rd edition) –have won high praise and earned him recognition as one of The Atlantic magazine's "Brave Thinkers.”

In addition to his primary duties at John Jay College, Moskos is a faculty member in CUNY's Doctoral Programs in Sociology and Criminal Justice, teaches introductory police classes at LaGuardia Community College in Queens, and is a Senior Fellow of the Yale Urban Ethnography Project.
