B.S. Administration of Justice-George Mason University
A.A.S. Police Science, Germanna Community College.
Most of my classes at George Mason werent Criminal Justice related. The few I took were on Terrorist Groups in the world and I took a class where we had to do an observation paper(going out in the community) of various Criminal Justice elements. The Court System, The police, and corrections. When I graduated I moved to California and worked as a counselor with emotionally disturbed kids. I did that for two years. the pay sucked but the experience was invaluable. I think it was great for really any major. I did some volunteering at the Youth Authority there. Tough place. Then I got homesick so I moved back here and tried working at a state correctional facility here in VA. that really sucked and I quickly figured out that Criminal Justice as a job was not me. Unless I plan to go through Law School in my life time. At least I know and have the respect of what correctional officer and psychiatric counselors go through. Right now I am pursuing something totally different from what I should of pursued in school. Like many including Alumnus who cares. I worked Best Buy over this past holiday, quit that, and now I am temping for a company up in northern virginia and am building on my IT skills. So far so good. I guess IT is where I'm headed and getting those certifications or back to school. This was long.
