Michigan Police Department Comparison

  research on the Internet concerning two Michigan police agencies. Students will select an agency with 200 or more officers and a department with less than 50 officers. You will compare and contrast: size and population difference of the two departments, differences or likeness in the organization of the departments, differences in specialized units/programs, compensation and benefits (wages, medical coverage, etc.). Include any other differences you might see as interesting. Discuss whether you would be interested in working in either one or both of these police departments. Why or why not?
