Computer forensics is a growing area of law enforcement that investigates a new generation of crimes, including computer-aided terrorism, espionage, bank and business fraud, crimes against children, and identity theft. This is the fifth year Jischke and university leaders have conducted daylong visits to Indiana communities to meet and exchange ideas with business leaders and Indiana residents. Future visits in 2004 and 2005 are planned for Indianapolis, Bedford, Muncie, Evansville, Valparaiso, Kokomo and Elkhart.
