Conundrum 1 #26 March 25, 2004 Right now I go to LTU in Chatsworth and I study Digital Animatin and Special Effects. I'll be finished in a few months. In the summer, from June 25th to July 25th I will be attending Harvard University in Boston also studying Digial Animation. I have been an artist since I can remember, mostly hand drawn stuff. But now a days, everything is digital, so I decided to put my skills to the test... and so far, everything is A-OK. Attached is an example of what I do, it's just a still pic.

panzwami 0 #27 March 25, 2004 Finished up at the Georgia Institute of Technology last May, with a BS in Management, focused in IT. Went in as a Computer Science major, but that got old real fast. Decided to give some Management courses a try right around the same time I started skydiving. Spending time skydiving and running the Skydiving Club turned out to be a crap ton more fun than spending time doing schoolwork, so I stuck with the (significantly less time-consuming) management classes. Now part of my job involves telling CS people what to do, so I think I made the right choice. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GrumpySmurf 0 #28 March 25, 2004 Started pre-med, started the app for med school (it was the last year you could apply without having completed an undergrad degree), figured out I didn't really want a career listening to people whine, had a nack for PCs, jumped into CS - found it a bazillion times easier and subsequently picked up Business Admin along the way as well. My motto the whole time was, 'I'm here for the women, I'm just getting a degree on the side' Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kennedy 0 #29 March 25, 2004 Went to U of Maryland College Park until I graduated May last year. (ep, made itout in four) I majored in Criminology and Criminal Justice because I wanted to be a cop. Got cold feet on the cop thing, had some pressures towards another job and I took it. I'm still suffering the consequences and trying to get back on track to be a cop. Find what you like, take it and do it, even when you get nervous. You can always change jobs a few years down the road. My one piece of advice is find a career placement for your first post grad employment. Don't settle for another job. Even if you don't make it your life's work, start a career. It makes things so much easier later on.witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1* Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sheenster303 0 #30 March 25, 2004 I go to Georgia State University and the school says my major is Anthropology. But there is no way I'm doing that. I'm kinda deciding between Sociology and History right now. Leaning more toward Sociology though. Don't know why I decided to go to college. I guess it was the right thing to do..........I'm so funny I crack my head open! P.M.S. #102 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vertifly 0 #40 March 25, 2004 BSCS - NJU 1998 MSIS - Drexel 2001 I knew that computer stuff was just my thing. The job outlook was really good back in 1992 (or so). The money seemed good enough. There were companies willing to put me to work without a degree when I got started and they paid for me to go to school while working. That's about it.

Austin 0 #42 March 25, 2004 I'm graduating in May from the University of Kansas with my B.S. in Aerospace Engineering and more than likely will be returning in the fall to start working on a M.S. in Aerospace Engineering.

Brains 2 #43 March 25, 2004 Quote have a finance degree and work in construction management. A degree is a degree, ok a business degree is a business degree, so unless you want into a specific type of work, ie medical, engineering, law, etc., just get a degree and figure out what you want to do in life, and then change your mind 10000 times. Yeah, what Perky said. I graduated from Tarleton State University (176 miles up Hwy 6) with a degree in Agricultural Services and Development. I have a teaching certificate and could teach high school ag. I went to work out of college for a meat packing company. Now i own an air conditioning and heating company. It doesn't matter what you major in (almost) as long as you finish and get a degree, you can change later. Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you.

Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites gmanpilot 0 #49 March 25, 2004 Sarah, I would wait until you have a fairly good idea what you want to study. All colleges are not created equally. For instance: If you want to study engineering, you would not go to Wm & Mary or Brown, you would go to MIT or Stanford. If you wanted to study History, you would do the opposite. That is assuming you are hella smart, or wicked rich. If not, the same advice applies. Pick your area of interest, then pick the school. Good luck._________________________________________ -There's always free cheese in a mouse trap.
