Question for Federal Cyber Crime members

[OFFMason]

Hello everyone, I'm new here to the forums. I'm 19 years of age and I attend Adelphi University in New York, on Long Island. I'm currently a sophomore. I aspire to one day become a federal agent, most likely with the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

My average day is spent on the internet: reading the news, browsing for interesting articles on global politics, debating my point of view on certain political and criminal topics.

You can find me on message boards, IRC Networks, and web-designing. All sorts of little tidbits that won't help me get into the Federal Bureau of Investigation. I've got a 3.379 GPA and nothing to show for it.

I'd like to do something far more interesting, at least in the eyes of the bureau. Since I spend so much time on the internet, what if I did some good with that? What to do? What to do?

What if I help track down pedophiles and help take down child-smut rings?

It seems like an interesting idea to me. I don't exactly know how I would go about doing this just yet. My technical computer skills are above average and I may be of some use.

I would like to get in contact with any federal agent looking to take on my offer of assistance. I would love to have a mentor. Please share your thoughts, both officers and agents alike. I apologize if this idea seems to be bizarre or juvenile.

you don't state what your major is.  if you are a computer hardware or software type they will hire you and usually place you where your skills can be used, but no guarentee.  they may have you do other things first and you work your way in.

overall, sounds like you spend to much time reading and fanitsizing about being an agent and not enough time studying an area that can provide useful skills or knowledge to be an agent.
