I chose a major in criminal justice, I always thought it would be great to be a public servant

00:00:09.000 --> 00:00:12.000
An now I'm pursuing a carer as a state trooper game warden

00:00:12.000 --> 00:00:19.000

00:00:19.000 --> 00:00:24.000
Of the courses I'm taking this term, one class is corrections coursework and counseling

00:00:24.000 --> 00:00:29.000
Right now we are going over duties of probation officers and how important interpersonal communications is

00:00:29.000 --> 00:00:35.000
I've already taken classes in Ethics and Leadership, Police in Community

00:00:35.000 --> 00:00:43.000
and Correction, and each class has shown me that the way an officer talks to an individual is crucial for the perception of that officer and the department

00:00:43.000 --> 00:00:47.000
While pursuing my degree in criminal justice, I've been hired on at the Campus Public Safety 

00:00:47.000 --> 00:00:54.000
Which has allowed me hands on experience even before I graduate

00:00:54.000 --> 00:00:57.000
Right now I'm focusing more on patrolling the lots

00:00:57.000 --> 00:00:61.000
I'm also helping in medical assists in the resident halls and on campus

00:01:01.000 --> 00:01:07.000
And assisting the officers during big events, parades, move-in day

00:01:07.000 --> 00:01:13.000
I recommend the criminal justice program here at Western Oregon University because the professors don't only teach from a text book,

00:01:13.000 --> 00:01:17.000
But they teach from on the job experience and personal experience 

00:01:17.000 --> 00:01:20.000
Western Oregon University is the perfect fit for me

00:01:20.000 --> 00:01:28.000
