    Greetings from a recent college grad looking to go FLE

    I have been visiting the site for a couple months, feel its about time I joined the conversation. First off I have to give my thanks to those who maintain and contribute to this site and those of you out there making this great nation a safer place. I hope to be able to join the thin blue line in the not so distant future!

    Some background:
    I'm 22, graduated a private college in New Jersey with a History major, poly sci and L&J minor. Some of the more rewarding and interesting experiences I have had include: volunteering at the District Office of my Congressman, spending last summer in DC with a non-profit legal service provider and working (for a paycheck, what a novel idea ) for the Associate Provost/L&J Director of my university.

    Personal:
    I am single (this is a dating site, right? lol)
    Dedicated much of my undergrad career to Tau Kappa Epsilon Fraternity, and served as president my junior year.
    Have a couple months of Krav Maga classes and really enjoyed them.
    Play a little bass guitar, workout of course, and get some xbox in and visit the library twice a month.

    Professional:
    I applied to the USSSUD and have a COE from them, trying to be patient waiting for a call to schedule my med/poly.

    Had also applied and recieved tentitive selection letter from BP, but turned that down because I feel UD is a better fit for my career and life goals and thought the city was just awesome.
    Currently, I work in the Accounting dept. of a power tech. company keep some $ coming in, another benefit being it's something new.

    My professional goal is to become a 1801/special agent (FBI, USSS, USMS, etc.), then waaay down the line get elected to a political office. I suppose I want to be misunderstand and generally strongly disliked for the rest of my life :-O !

    Nice to meet everyone
