  Just so everyone's aware 'college degree' here is expansive including two-year (community/vocational/technical/etc) colleges. I know many people who went to Ridgewater College (a college locally known having low standards and keeping the high school party going) specifically for a degree 'law enforcement'. Highlights include supervised taser use on each other (which probably aids in a mentality of assuming they know how the experience translates to others and underestimating risk) ETA: per the link, the degree requirement isn't applicable to those with prior experience and having been working in police sometime in the prior six years
