Going to College

Posted about 1 year ago How close to getting your degree are you and which school do you go to? |

| Posted about 1 year ago Hi! I'm from Atlanta, GA and attend Kaplan University online. I will be graduating in September 2008 with a Masters degree in Criminal Justice. I plan to go further and pursue a Ph.D so I can teach. |

Enjoy your college experience and work hard because it will pay off great dividends. Being a Tyrant does not make one a Leader! |

| Posted about 1 year ago wspringer, you sound like an intelligent young man. Don't overlook ROTC scholarships or service in the National Guard or Army Reserve. A part-time job with some relief for tuition costs. Good luck and keep plugging away. |

| Posted about 1 year ago Thank heavens I am done with all of that! Finished my Master's (MBA) in May 2007... also have an AA in Law Enforcement Science and a BS in Public Safety Management. BS and MBA are from Franklin University. "You can't lead from behind" Gen'l James Longstreet, CSA |

| Posted 7 months ago I am 1/3 of the way to my Master of Science in Administration of Justice and Security Degree from the University of Phoenix - Online. I also have 8 Credits towards my Associate of Applied Science in Emergency Management Degree from Frederick Community College (A Brick and Mortar School) and will be getting an Internship next year hopefully with The National Weather Service (NWS) in Lincoln, Illinois. |

| Posted 7 months ago LOL I have 1 semester of college and now that college no long exists so I can get a report card from a historical society for the 15 credit hours I have done. I would love to go back to school because now I can add my academy time and extra training for credit hours towards a degree. So far the best is 20 hours for the academy plus I beleave 5 hours for each Certificate I have through the dept plus apparently the Annual cycle training counts for credit I really need to check in with this stuff |

| Posted 5 months ago I'm almost half way there. I'm lucky my work pays up to $1500 per year for AA and BA $4500 a year so its nice to go to school and just have to show up and pass the class and buy books not bad |

| Posted 4 months ago Someone also forgot to mention the Marine Reserves! The Best in the World. Nobody pushes you harder like the Marines do, you get training that is equivalent to Special Forces. "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing." |
