As for BU huh? I work for BUPD, its an OK gig, don't get excited about doing alot of police work if you are there though. While its true, you can get a variety of calls as with any police department, calls of any substance are few and far between. Most of the calls are to deal with drunk students, or check on false B&E alarms, and driving around checking certain addresses all night. OH and lets not forget, NO CHAP 90, so get use to someone blowing by you on COMM ave and you sitting there holding your pud in your hand cuz you can't do anything about it. Boston cops in the area hate BU and will treat like you aren't even there when you try and say HI to them....But other then that its great!!!!! The up side is the money is pretty good, there are enough details to make some cake, the %90 off education for yourself and your kids is great. RIght now they are looking for minorities and females, theres a shock huh! its a good place to get through the academy though and make some money. I was so excited to get the job when I first started but then I realized pretty quick how it works. But good luck to anyone who wants it, the officers there are great people.
