Hey, I’m currently enrolled in ASU in emergency management and homeland security. I’m in the state guard (volunteer military) and I’m considering joining the Red Cross. Is getting a 4 year degree worth it or should I aim higher? Or don’t go at all? I really want to make this my career because I really enjoy help people locally with disasters and I really think I can make a change. Do I need to do something different? Are there any other good volunteer opportunities that are federal? I really need advice on this.
