Free College Credit from TEEX!

[rvm]

I try not to complain often. But I'm going to right now. I'm on the TEEX website to enroll in the cyber security courses. I don't mind reasonable questions. But the form required me to answer background questions such Type of Dept/Agency, Type of Jurisdiction, Primary Job Duties, Professional Background. Ok... they collect more info than most. The thing that irritated me the most is they assume you work with or for the government. I did not have options to select "No agency association" or "private citizen" or even "student", etc. I would have gladly given some other info for them to check on me. After all... I am whole-heartedly against terrorism and think it should be prosecuted beyond the extent of the current laws. But, come on, dang it. Who is going to review this stuff? And if the knowledge gained is being used nefariously, who will know?

I guess what it boils down is in order to enroll, they made me select the incorrect but closest-to-anywhere-in-the-same-state answers. I don't like that I was forced to do that! Maybe some of you think I'm blowing this out of proportion. It just feels wrong.
