FBI Special Agent in Charge Robert Johnson to Speak at La Roche College on March 26

PITTSBURGH, March 2, 2018 – On Monday, March 26 La Roche University will host a presentation by Special Agent in Charge (SAC) of the FBI Pittsburgh Division Robert Johnson.

This free event will begin at 7 p.m. in the Kearns Spirituality Center Conference Room on the Sisters of Divine Providence campus adjacent to La Roche. SAC Johnson’s presentation will focus on American law enforcement in the Middle East, and he will discuss his career in the FBI, including leadership roles as a representative in Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan. The hour-long presentation will include a 15-minute question-and-answer session.

Sierra Anderson, La Roche junior and president of the La Roche Criminal Justice Club said, “SAC Johnson is someone who holds a lot on his plate, and to have him speak at La Roche University is an honor not only for the Criminal Justice Club, but for the community as a whole. We’ll have a chance to gain knowledge gathered by him firsthand, not by books or presentations based off other stories. How he grew in his field, and his tips for how we can do the same, will be valuable and important.”

The Criminal Justice Club will sponsor this event. The club fosters professionalism in law enforcement personnel, and encourages the establishment and expansion of higher education and professional training in criminal justice. Students who are interested in learning about the FBI, as well as the security community, are encouraged to attend.

Register online for the event.
