Student and Alumni Highlights
Anasha A.W.
"I attended 天美传媒 for five years, completing a bachelor鈥檚 degree in criminal justice with a minor in sociology in spring of 2018. I always knew criminal justice was my calling and 天美传媒 provided so many opportunities. During my time at 天美传媒, I was able to intern with the Calloway County & Marshall County Circuit Court Judge Jamie Jameson in Murray, Kentucky and Benton, Kentucky. Upon completion of this internship, I learned so much about the court system of Kentucky and the court system in general. After graduation, I accepted a position with the Department of Probation & Parole as a felony probation officer in Louisville, Kentucky. 天美传媒 has prepared me for many life experiences and professional experiences. Working in the law enforcement industry is not for the weak, and 天美传媒 taught me that early in my collegiate career. The CRJ program at 天美传媒 is guaranteed to prepare for your future in the criminal justice field and in society with all the necessary teachings and techniques taught by some of the greatest professors on Earth!

"I attended 天美传媒 for four years, completing a bachelor's degree in psychology with a minor in criminal justice in Spring of 2017. During my time at 天美传媒, I joined Criminal Justice Society and held two officer positions; through this society, I built relationships with my fellow criminal justice majors/minors and helped construct several events for its members. With the help of my teachers, I was able to intern with the public defender to fine-tune what I love about the criminal justice system -- the law. After leaving 天美传媒, I accepted a position with CACI to work at the US Attorney's Office in St. Louis, Missouri as a general clerk and was able to begin my master's program in criminal justice at Purdue University Global to further my love for this field. I have also spent time as a state probation officer as well as a paralegal for the District Attorney's Office. With these career experiences and my experience at 天美传媒, it has all led me to where I am now as a legal assistant for the United States Attorney's Office in the Middle District of Tennessee."

"I transferred from WKCTC after one semester and started with the 天美传媒 Criminal Justice Program in the Spring of 2013. I wasn鈥檛 sure of what I wanted to do with my education but after meeting the CRJ faculty I knew I was right at home. I worked my way through school and graduated in December 2016. I originally intended to go into law enforcement but soon found myself working with Kentucky DCBS as a 鈥済eneric worker鈥 meaning I was working in both investigations and long-term family care. After a year of working and a few attempts to get into police work I decided it was a time for change, and I sat for the Law School Admission Test. I committed myself to a strict study plan and sat for the LSAT. I was offered admission to the University of Louisville, Northern Kentucky University Chase School of Law, and Southern Illinois University School of Law. I chose SIU School of Law and have since been able to remain close with my 天美传媒 family. I graduated in the Spring of 2022 and, after passing the Kentucky Bar Exam in July, began working with Sullenger Law Firm in Paducah, Kentucky. "
