I'd prefer police officers with EMT (and preferably paramedic) training to those with four-year sociology degrees.
Knowledge of DNA and computer forensic methods and necessities, though, would probably improve their chances of getting promoted, as would legal training. However, those skills could easily be learned at two-year community college progams.
All in all, I think this kind of focus would lead to a more professional police force.
