Officer Cliff Madison of the Drug and Vice Unit in the Portland Police Bureau talked about his work, and a member of the District Attorney's office, Michael Brown, attended a meet– ing to talk about the prosecution of gang members. "Beyond the general appeal, a presentation bene– fits those who are considering a career in law as well as those in the decision making process," wrote Talley in a letter to one of the speakers. The AJA presently sits on the Campus Safety Task force and has a representative, Talley, on the Administration of Justice department faculty search committee. Another thing that has marked this year's AJA as different from the past is that they made money. In three days a bake sale held during the fall term netted them $180. A request for funding was also made to the IFC to help fund a monthly newsletter and purchase T-shirts. The AJA is interested in reaching out to more freshman students and increasing the active mem– bershlp. "Students who are interested in any justice related issues are encouraged to participate," said Talley. 39
