                                                               CLASSMATE’S POST

My future career aspirations are to become Chief of Police or Sheriff of my County. The classes that I have taken during this program has helped me become better at conducting research so that I can gain a better and more accurate understanding of the criminal justice system. This class has helped me learn how to apply all of the different elements and lessons together at the same time. I feel that it is important to recognize that society and law enforcement are connected and have an impact on one another. The lessons and skills that I have gained from this class will help me conduct research into emerging trends in law enforcement so that I can make the best recommendations for my community and department. I feel confident that I can provide references and justification to support my stances and provide me with credibility because I can justify my decisions and make effective changes. I think that this is an issue within law enforcement agencies now because many agencies avoid change because it is difficult to modify behavior or justify the cost to implement the changes. I hope to have better success with addressing this issue.
