moodyskydiver 0 #15 February 15, 2004 QuoteYour interest in CRJ sounds pretty powerful, why? I was originally a Psychology major because human behavior fascinated me.I guess theres a good bit of behavioralism in CJ too.I havent specialized my major yet, but I'm leaning towards Criminology and I have the chance to minor or Psychology,Sociology, Forensic Psychology, Victimology or a slew of other similar fields. I guess I've just been around it all my life b/c my grandfather was good friends with our county sheriff and several of the sheriff's deputies,cops, emergency corps, Texas Rangers etc. So I was always around law enforcement in a positive light. I even volunteered on the sheriff's campaign staff for his last 3 term elections and will be doing so again this year.When my grandfather passed away in 2001, of the 200+ people at his funeral almost half were in a law enforcement uniform.To me that was a testament to the strong moral character my grandfather possessed and was know for and thats something I'll never forget. The final triggering factor came 2 years ago when I was in a very abusive relationship with someone I later found out to be a compulsive liar, thief and drug addict. After recovering from that I just had a personal resolution to make sure people like him don't get away with what they do and help to prevent the harm they do others.
