Several factors have reduced the applicant pool from which police departments will choose their future employees (Swope, 1999). Although the applicant pool has dwindled, the need for more law enforcement officers continues to increase (Swope, 1999). An ever-growing population will only expand the demand in the years to come (Eiserer, 2007). Illicit use of prescription medications have found themselves on police applications in growing numbers (Bruns, 2010). Specifically, the popularity of medications normally prescribed to individuals suffering fromAttention Deficit Disorder (or ADD) has increased (Yanes, 2014). Currently, use of these drugs without a prescription is considered a felony and disqualifies the candidates from law enforcement agencies (Yanes, 2014). While reason for concern is warranted, the growing popularity in some of the most prestigious schools coupled with an ever-growing need for law enforcement officers and a shortage of applicants, the following can be concluded (Yanes, 2014). The use of ADDmedications without a prescription should not disqualify a police applicant from employment in law enforcement. Police applicants who use non-prescribed ADD medication while attending college for the sole purpose of studying, in spite of this, are still very qualified applicants. Their use of these drugs is not intended for recreational use and this fact should be taken under consideration. Many college students cease usage after graduation. Law enforcement agencies will have to adjust their policy, either in regards to ADD medications or other qualifications, if they intend to maintain adequate staffing levels with the available applicant pool.Item Educational standards in law enforcement(Law Enforcement Management Institute of Texas (LEMIT), 2011) Holguin, MikeItem Height and Weight Standards for Police Officers(Law Enforcement Management Institute of Texas (LEMIT), 1996) Stewart, Dennis W.Item Higher Education for the future of law enforcement(Law Enforcement Management Institute of Texas (LEMIT), 2005) Morales, Claudio AntonioItem How detectives are made(Law Enforcement Management Institute of Texas (LEMIT), 2007) Stevens, GregoryItem Is a Post-secondary Education Requirement for Selection as a Texas Peace Officer Necessary?(Law Enforcement Management Institute of Texas (LEMIT), 2003) Carey, Wallace JayItem Lateral Entry for Mid and Upper Management Positions(Law Enforcement Management Institute of Texas (LEMIT), 1996) Huckabee, ScottItem Psychological Screening as it Relates to Police Misconduct(Law Enforcement Management Institute of Texas (LEMIT), 1991) Willingham, JaniceItem Recruiting a Qualified Police Officer(Law Enforcement Management Institute of Texas (LEMIT), 2002) Allen, MichelleItem Selection of Field Training Officers in the Deer Park Police Department(Law Enforcement Management Institute of Texas (LEMIT), 1997) Littlejohn, CherieItem Succession planning and promotional exams in Texas(Law Enforcement Management Institute of Texas (LEMIT), 2011) Ford, Antonio L.Item Succession planning for impending retirements(Law Enforcement Management Institute of Texas (LEMIT), 2015) Anderson, JeffItem The effectiveness of the oral interview in the promotional process for Sergeants and Lieutenant(Law Enforcement Management Institute of Texas (LEMIT), 2008) Reyes, Robert
