[quote=Anonymous]1. Media glamorization of cops. 2. Fundamental changes in other employment, such that the average cop now makes a very attractive living (certainly the same as, or better than, what most college grads are now paid), receives attractive benefits, and cannot be fired absent criminal conduct. 3. Declining availability of traditional white-collar jobs for Bachelors-only grads. 4. Old-fashioned student loan marketing schemes. A degree in Crim Justice typically isn't required; being a cop at any level (local, state, Federal) is all about the civil service hiring process and Vet benefits play a major point-scoring role. So some colleges market Criminal Justice degrees that provide exactly zero vocational opportunity. [/quote]
