Based on what I've read here and from talking to others, it seems that CJ degrees may not be the best choice for those wishing to get into law enforcement. I can appreciate how it might be a waste of time and money if you don't turn out to be a good candidate or have background/psych issues that prevent you from getting hired by an agency. For you guys that have been on the job for awhile, what are your thoughts on pursuing a Bachelor's in CJ once you're already on the job? I'm still on probation with my agency, got my associate's degree and am looking towards getting my Bachelor's. From my point of view, the Criminal Justice field is of interest to me (duh!) and if it doesn't matter what you get your degree in, might as well study something that's of interest and might even make me a better cop. Your thoughts?
