Background: This is an email from a criminal justice bachelor's degree student. A college student should have the common sense necessary to answer this question, but some of the things I hear cease to amaze me any more. So, as I said, this is a college student enrolled in a bachelor's degree program.
If someone can explain to me how lighthouses have ANYTHING to do with criminal justice (or academia in ANY way) I'll change my tune... but I read this and was just stupified. :confused:Originally Posted by CJ student in an email to me

I can see it now....
But Professor, lighthouses have that bright beacon of light that guides the ships along their route! They direct ships away from danger! The lighthouse symbolizes guidance through life!!! Sir, lighthouses have everything to do with criminal justice!!!!
If you don't let me design my own web site, in which I promise I haven't designed already because I collect lighthouses ***fingers crossed***, then how about if I design a new police badge? I will design one with a beautiful lighthouse on it! Pretty please??????

What is sadder is that by "designing my own web site about lighthouses" he actually meant "go on Geocities and use their engine to put a picture of a whitehouse that I found on Google onto a white page with a horrible color scheme".

Yeah, that's pretty sad but it still doesn't hold a candle to the questions asked in the "Ask A Cop" forum. :D

ROS, would you change your stance if she told you her lighthouse was going to have red and blue revolving lights?

Maybe Anita can get extra credit for designing a different kind of website....;)
I hope that wasn't too vague. :DPoliticians are like diapers- they should be changed regularly, and for the same reason.

As an adjunct instructor in Fire Science at a community college, I quit requiring papers. They were so...can I say junk...that I turned myself into an English teacher.
Extra credit...go to the internet and provide me 10 sites that deal with fraud investigations.
These people need to take more English courses and creative writing.
