The college offers over 40 associate programs and over 20 mastery programs. They have five academic divisions, namely Business and Information Technology, Arts, English and Humanities, Social Sciences, Science, Engineering and Mathematics, and Health Professions.
Career
After completing her education, Shearer began working at the Integris Southwest Medical Center a comprehensive hospital in Oklahoma City, as a respiratory therapist. There are various departments within the hospital, including a cancer institute, breast health center, neuromuscular center, sleep disorders center and many more. The hospital began in 1965 as a 73 bed community hospital, but now has over 400 beds and various fields of study. It has around a 70% satisfaction rate according to the website HealthGrades.
Allicia works as a specialist, trained in pulmonary medicine to help people suffering from those types of diseases. There are various areas of respiratory therapy though it is not known what field she focuses on. These types of therapists are often found in intensive care units of hospitals, or emergency departments, responsible for intubating patients, and also specializing in sleep therapy as well as cardiology. They are trained in how to manage the airway during trauma and intensive care, and initiate and manage life support for people in these areas, stabilizing and treating patients pre-hospital as well as during transfers. They can also be found in clinics, mostly as educators or diagnosticians, and can be present during pulmonary rehabilitation.
Street Outlaws and Husband
Eventually, Allicia would become known through her association with Big Chief, as they were married during the early days of the show “Street Outlaws”, the reality television series which began airing on the Discovery Channel in 2013, and has been running for 12 seasons. The show focuses on the world of street racing, following a particular crew as they go through their careers in what would be considered a controversial to illegal field in many areas of the US. Since its inception, the show has gained a lot of fame as well as attracting controversy.

Her former husband has been involved in street racing from a young age, as Big Chief moved to Oklahoma with his family as a child, and started gaining interest. He eventually worked on his first car to transform it into a street-racing modified vehicle. His first car helped him gain a lot of popularity and notoriety within the state, with his success elevating him to become a leader within his own crew. The show often depicts him as he tries to manage his own crew, while also handling the drama and events in the local street racing scene.
Personal Life and Social Media
For her personal life, it is known that Allicia met Justin when he was 18 years old and working at a full-service gas station. The two became acquaintances which eventually led them to start dating. They got engaged six years later in 2005, and married the following year. They have two children together and for the most part the family has been strongly supportive of Big Chief’s racing career. In 2017, rumors started spreading about the couple’s relationship being in a rocky position, as she was no longer seen in any of “Street Outlaws” episodes from then.

It was also noted that Big Chief was becoming close to fellow racer and co-star Jackie Braasch. According to a podcast episode that featured Chief, he mentioned that his wife filed for divorce due to an alleged affair, and Braasch may have been the cause of it though not confirmed. His actions with his co-star also indicates that the two are either going through divorce or are already divorced. Since their relationship’s end, Allicia has been noticeably low profile and absent in her online accounts. Some of her accounts such as Instagram has been set to private, and her medical license also expired, meaning that she might be focused on some other career that hasn’t been disclosed publicly.
