Which college are you attending/attended and how do you like it?

I'm here at the University of Cincinnati. I like it OK, it's in a pretty rough part of town, but the campus is nice and the Professors are compassionate about their work.

Ferris State University.................the BEST CJ school in Michigan.






Oh and Jay...........GVSU sucks!

I won't reveal the campus for privacy reasons, but I like it there well enough. :)

OK. :confused: Thanks for posting.

I'm a criminal justice alumnus of Appalachian State University in North Carolina. I'm also proud to add that we're the 2005 NCAA Division 1-AA NATIONAL CHAMPIONS!

I go to Winona State in Winona, MN. I like it. We have about 8,000 students and all of the Criminal Justice Classes are small. Professors are good also.

Oh they all suck compared to my school! LOL (Which for privacy reasons will remain undisclosed. :p)

Anybody here on Facebook? :)

I am. I don't know how to find a person at another school though, I don't think it will let you do that.

All you got to do is search under global for the name. Back to the question at hand, I go to Troy University in Alabama.

Oh come on, talk junk and then not give us the opportunity to shoot back, that ain't right. :D

I see Jynkxxie, dish it out and can't take it, yep..alright.

Oh and Jay I never said our football team was any good, just GVSU and FSU suck!!!

See, we don't even have a football team. :p

Maybe once I graduate.

Just graduated from Park University. I tried my hand at playing football in '92 for Carson-Newman College and just ate lots of dirt for my efforts. :p

See, we don't even have a football team. :p

Maybe once I graduate.

Can't argue with privacy concerns. But one question, is it a major college, if it is then I have a guess.

See, we don't even have a football team. :p



Don't worry, mine doesn't either. :(

What school would that be you ask..............

GO DAWGS!!!

Don't worry, mine doesn't either. :(

No, I think our big thing is Baseball. But hell, I have been so displaced from the actual university the past year or so that I am not even sure about that.

Richard Stockton College of New Jersey, great school, great area. Crim program director is fairly frustrating. but ah well.

North Carolina State University. Unfortunately when I attended they didn't have a CJ degree. You had to major in Political Science or Sociology with a concentration in CJ.

However, we did have ACC sports!!! :p

Yeah, ours is basketball. We used to have football, until the early 60s I believe. What they should really have is a hockey team. :p

I wish my school had Cheerleaders. :( Ah well...I will save that for Notre Dame perhaps. :p

I wish my school had Cheerleaders.


We got those! :D

Ferris all the way. That is my school also and YES it is the best CJ program in Michigan.

University of Maryland Criminology/Criminal Justice Alumni. Currently the #1 ranked criminal justice program in the nation.

I heard John Jay College was supposed to have the best CJ program in the nation. My cousin and her husband (who is in the NYPD) go there and they tell me that it is very tough.

I heard John Jay College was supposed to have the best CJ program in the nation.

I have heard the same and would love to get my master's from John Jay. They also have one of the best internet based programs as well.

Oh, Squeeeg and Stud, you both are way off base, NMU all the way.

Oh, Squeeeg and Stud, you both are way off base, NMU all the way.

They have several Master's programs that sound very interesting and appealing as well. They have the MPA, MA in Forensic Psychology, MS in Forensic Science, and the MS in Forensic Computing. Does anyone here have any insight into any of these programs? My university offers a certificate and a MS in Forensic Science.

All you Michiganders are wrong it is University of Michigan. :D Man I wish I could have gone there. Mainly to irritate my Sgt he walks around all proud with that darned Troj........uh Spartan tatooed to his arm.

I graduated from Roger Williams University in Rhode Island, through their distance program. It was a pain but I actually learned a thing or two.

I've heard that the best was Sam Houston State here in Texas. Wonder how they do the ranking? Anyway I have a Bachelors of Applied Arts and Science degree with a Criminology emphsis from Texas A&M University - Kingsville.

Basicly I had to take the same number of hours in criminology as the crim majors I just didn't have to take a minor they gave it to me for my academies and military time.

Currently working on a masters in sociology with a criminology emphsis but it should be a masters in criminology because all my classes are criminology classes they just don't have an auctal Masters in criminology. They say they're working on it.

I've heard that the best was Sam Houston State here in Texas. Wonder how they do the ranking?.

I got my BA from Sam Houston, thought it wasn't in Criminal Justice. As I understand it, they have a very good graduate program. When I was in Grad School, I studied under a professor who had gotten his PhD there in the 70s.

I have no idea how they do school rankings, since every school is the best at something, or so it seems.

I'm at Western Illinois University and they are supposedly renowned for having a great LEJA (Law Enforcement Justice Administration) program with an excellent internship program. I'm a sophimore transfer student from Black Hawk College in Moline. So far I have enjoyed my time at college.

The program here is very good!!! Ranked top 3 in the nation.

Westfield State College. Freshmen, like it so far, and it is supposedly the best CJ school in New England. Plan to get my masters, and get my EMT cert. threw the school.

See, we don't even have a football team. :p

I feel your pain. I go to the largest school in Virginia, yet we still dont have a team.:mad:

I went to Bluefiled College in Bluefield VA. They have a CRJ program tailored to working adults. It is quite intensive, but worth it.

Entering with 54 credits or more, you can obtain you bachelor's in 13 months. It is three back-to-back semesters with 4 classes per semester. It is a lot of work and a lot of independant study, because you only meet once per week. I found it challenging and I am very happy it's over :rolleyes:

I have been accepted to the University of New Hampshire, not sure if I want to go there yet. Im also applying to Plymouth State University, Bently College, and Franklin Pierce (all in New Hampshire, Bently is in Mass.)

Wouldn't it be great if there was A a Sam Houston Institute of Technology. Then you could say I go to good old S H I T. :)

central connecticut state university

University of New Haven Class of 2003.

Great school academically, but socially the place is dead. Lots of perks like being able to see Henry Lee give many presentations. Also has an outstanding, very knowledgeable and experienced roster of professors. (IMO one of the best qualities a teacher in a CJ program can have)

I never did attend there, but I've been thinking of getting a post graduate degree from Morehead. I mean, just the cheer alone is worth the aggravation of going back to school.

Think about it.

DFrost

I agree. I don't really need any more degrees, but I would like to have one from there!

So when the blonde coed asks, "So where do you go to school?", you can say "Moorehead." :D

Eastern Kentucky University. There is a SUPERB College of justice & safety here with majors in Criminal Justice, Corrections, Police Studies, Loss Prevention, and a few others. The college of justice & safety is attached to the KY State Department of Criminal Justice Training (DOCJTC) Most police officers in KY are trained at the academy here (save for a few metro police departments and State police, which will soon be training at teh DOCJTC as the facilities expand.) Classes are taught mostly by instructors from the DOCJTC, so you learn alot of real life stuff, not just the silly theory that most universities teach.

Im attending South Plains college in Lubbock,TX. But will be attending sul ross in Alpine,TX next year to finish everything up. South Plains is great because all the teachers are EX- law enforcement, My teacher i have now still teaches Police academy in the summer. But they only offer a two year degree.

I agree. I don't really need any more degrees, but I would like to have one from there!

That is good stuff.

I am a Minot State University alumni myself. When I went they had a very knowledgable CJ staff, several PHD's and Dr's. Good people, small classes (never more than 30) good environment. I enjoyed it. --Jake

Top 10th best public school in the US

Top 3rd Crim. program in the US.

I Like Irvine, but its a little to nice of an area for me.....guess im just used of the lower class mentality.......

UCF...really...? I went there for one year my freshmen year. Went there to play baseball and things didn't work out so I transferred to FSU. UCF was great while I was there!

University of Pittsburgh class of 2009. I only need 15 more credits before I graduate with a bachelors in ADMJ. Going to the police academy this July at Indiana University of Pennsylvania. I hope to pursue a masters after I graduate with my bachelors...part time when I get a job.

University of Maryland, University College
B.S. in Psychology and a minor in CJ

The school was excellent, and most of the CJ professors had prior LE experience, which made the classes much more effective.

University of South Alabama, not very exciting but it got the job done.

I hope you didn't join RP for help with homework questions, because you would be screwed!
LOL




I did a little prep-work at the junior college of hard knocks, but avoided getting into anything of consequence.
I received a BS from Purdue in biology.
...and voila, here I am, a professional student, still working on my PhD (note the sig). :D I doubt the G is accredited, though.

Penn State '13

Nasssau Communtiy College - one more semster left then I graduate in May... Garden City, NY

I am currently attending SUNY Albany and am planning to major in Criminal Justice. I have already taken a few undergraduate CJ classes and have enjoyed them greatly. SUNY Albany is a great school and succeeds especially well in Criminal Justice (the school is ranked 2nd best in the nation).

CityofChicago you SOB, I too graduated from WIU.:eek: Go Leathernecks!:D

Go 'Necks!

I'm attending a community school here in TN. I like the campus and it's quite nice. There are some things you can do like sports and clubs. Someone in my classes last term started a criminal justice club and sadly we only met once but it was nice. I have the same professor for all my criminal justice classes and I like his teaching ways and all that. I've enjoyed the students as well and getting to know people. One thing I like is we travel a lot in the same groups and some classes are small. My largest c.j. class so far has been my Crime & Media class and it was like maybe fifteen or so people?
