    1. Hello everyone, my name is Glendy Sanchez and it is very nice to get to know some of you guys. I know I am extremely late, but I was just now able to figure out CUNY commons and recently sign in. My major is criminology which was criminal justice at first, but once I transferred from Limestone College in SC, to John Jay College of Criminal Justice I changed my major. Criminal Justice is based more on the legal system and I am more interested in studying behavior which is what criminology is more about. Criminology is what I initially wanted to study to begin with but Limestone College only offered criminal justice. I have about 96 credits and a 3.78 cumm. GPA since I have to be thorough due to my anxiety and ADHD. Getting into John Jay was one of the best decisions I have made. I love this school compared to my school in SC, and no I am not lying, because I have actually learned so much already than I ever would have at Limestone, the school system works better for me, and they focus more on understanding and grasping the concept rather than overload you with work you have no idea about because the class structure is horrible at Limestone College. I am also a Twin sister which I am very proud of. Her name is Glenda so yes it's Glendy and Glenda or Glenda and Glendy. Confused? lol,it's ok, I get it. My goal is to become a homicide detective but I am also interested in becoming a criminal profiler for the FBI which is why I am getting my master's in Clinical psychology. The way I function, due to my personality, is having and creating more than one option for me, therefore; I want to be a homicide detective because I get to do both go to the crime scene and investigate, etc meaning not just one job or a criminal profiler which is like solving a puzzle in my head, to me and this way I do not feel restricted to work in just one field. I like to learn, having discussions, reading, (although, I read slow), and just being around my family, etc. My favorite subject in school was always science. I love biology and anatomy and physiology but I mean, my mom is a Science (Chemistry & Biology) teacher so I guess I get it from her. I am also told I am funny without trying to be and I enjoy helping people, usually to defend their rights. I am an activist of social and economic reform. I believe in gender, class, and race equality. In addition, I went to the congress building as an activist with other activists to speak on behalf of the Justice Clemency Act and spoke and gave statistical facts to congressmen as well as preparing a campaign to help immigrants get their citizenship through an internship I took. I was born and raised in The Bronx but I am Dominican and Dominican cultured. I am 26 years old with no children yet and I love to travel and learn new cultures. It amazes me. I can keep going and it is nice talking to you but I think I am talking too much now, so I will stop here, but if you have any questions you would like to know about me feel free to ask. I am open to share and no I don't bite. I consider myself very nice, having good heart intentions, and pretty cool person. May you all have a great rest of your day.
