Need a job? Homeland Security is hiring!
http://www.kaplanuniversityonline.com/landing/CJ.php?source=106599&fpid=kap016

With the growing presence of our homeland security, the need for qualified criminal justice and security professionals is greater than ever. Whether you are currently in law enforcement, corrections, or private security, or looking to enter one of these fields, a criminal justice degree or certificate can make all the difference. In a typical 30-year career, the difference between having one or not can add up to several hundred thousand dollars. Kaplan University can give you the knowledge and credentials you need to advance or begin your criminal justice career. We even offer qualified students an opportunity to intern at a top crime lab for hands-on learning.

3. ITT and Florida Metropolitan University are offering the same in our
area.. Scares the bejeebus out of me because FMU actually guarantees you a job if you graduate.. How do they know that they can guarantee a job? How do they know there is going to be an uptick in positions?

6. CBS news did a story on FMU last week.
They basically said that most schools won't accept their credits and a degree from FMU is worthless.

12. That's pretty much common knowledge down here.. There have been
Edited on Mon Mar-20-06 02:20 PM by converted_democrat
dozens of extremely publicized court proceedings against them.. The thing that bugs me, is how can they guarantee a job? If the degree is worthless and they offer sub-standard education, what business do they have training our Homeland Security personnel? How are they going to guarantee positions in Homeland Security unless they have a deal worked out with the government? How do they know that there will be so many positions to fill? I mean, the consequences could be staggering if you think about.. Half ass trained personal running around with the authority to arrest people, and then on top of that they are supposed to keep us secured?? I mean, that's scary shit when ya think about it..

10. ITT ran ads during the bowl games -- called law enforcement a "growing ...
... field"

Kinda made me think that the war on terra was gonna be fought here as opposed to fighting it over there.

13. That's because I really dig those Sally Struthers University....
class rings. They are truly one of a kind.

I will never meet anyone with the same ring.

11. Who says crime doesn't pay ?
:rofl:

Actually, fed jobs pay really well, and you don't need a cyber degree to apply for most of them !

Here's a good site:

http://www.usajobs.opm.gov/homeland.asp

"This is a United States Office of Personnel Management website. USAJOBS is the Federal Government's official one-stop source for Federal jobs and employment information."

And yes, we need to embed more liberals in these positions :D :patriot:
