Madalyn Has Just Earned Her Degree in Information Systems

Madalyn has just earned her degree in information systems. After graduation, she decides to go to the police academy. She believes that working for the police and combining her knowledge of computers would be a great niche field. A job posting for a senior computer technician is posted within the police department. With her degree in information systems, Madalyn applies and is sure she will be welcomed with open arms into the job. The most likely reason she wouldn't get the job is because:

A) females are treated differently in policing.
B) the time-in-rank system favors experience over degrees.
C) more women are needed to handle female criminals on the streets.
D) patrol is the backbone of the police department.
