She received few scholarships for her university, however she stilled opted to perform the labor segment of her degree through the SSDF. She volunteered in Peninsula United and as a staffer for Dragefjordian Petite Prime Minister Kari Bratvold. She has commented that Peninsula United helped further her political career, more than being a staffer had and gave her a more hands-on learning experience with politicking.
Military and Discrimination
Jeanne joined the SSDF in 2010, passing the Military Vocational Aptitude Test (MVAT) with average scores. However due her Akuan ethnicity she was considered to be ineligible for combat roles despite her insistence otherwise. While serving in the SSDF, she made frequent attempts to change her job within the military and kept insisting she was not a absolutist non-violent like most Akuanists are and believed in self-defense of the state. Despite this, she was repeatedly denied transfer to infantry. After filing a lawsuit with help of a Akuan Veterans group, she filed a discrimination lawsuit against the SSDF in 2011, the court case ending in 2012. The defense making the argument that soldiers in combat roles wouldn't trust a ethnically Akuanist in their unit, pointing at various stereotypes that soldiers in combat roles tended to believe about Akuanist however the court ruled in favor of Jeanne and issuing a fine to the SSDF. After which, she was assigned to infantry role. In a later interview in 2017, she said enjoyed her service however when she transferred to infantry she was often bullied for having Duval Syndrome, and being an Akuanist in the infantry.
Being transferred into the infantry, she was primary assigned to the rear guard away from direct danger during civil unrest events. Often in guard duty around the hospital or emergency centers during such events, with Jeanne suggesting in a later interview and later confirmed by a SSDF general. That she was assigned there due to the stereotype of Akuanists being naturally comforting and kind hearted, believing that Jeanne would transfer again into a nurse role rather than staying in the infantry aftering seeing it. She didn't transfer and kept her role in the infantry, despite bullying. Throughout her several complains and reports of being bullied, only three out of fifteen of the recorded events was acted on. Jeanne stating in a interview, she wasn't sure how many reports she filed but she knew at some of them 'got lost' in transition to SR.
