What can I do with a criminal justice degree in the court system?

Here I am, starting my second semester of college and I'm having second thoughts about my current major. I believe I want to change my major, but I'm not sure what to. With a criminal justice degree I know you can become a cop or a social worker... but what else? Any help would be fantastic!

Update:

I am currently a physician assistant major, but recently I've been thinking it's not right for me.

Don't want to go through all the schooling for law school, so that's a big no.
