where did you go to college?

[asleepathewheel]

At my old school, Ole Miss, they've recently completed the Trent Lott Leadership Institute.



what you are taught there, I have no idea...

Japher, I forgot the exact intersection, it's near McDonald's and Jack in the Box... and that pizza place with surfboards less than a block away from SJSU. On San Carlos Ave? I used to live on Lincoln St (or Ave) off San Carlos.

I'll find it, I know where San Carlos Ave. is, it's a pretty long street though

[Barinthus]

Try E. San Carlos Ave and S. 2nd St, it's around there .

I much prefer the Samuel Ginn College of Engineering.

I wonder what is so funny about the George H.W. Bush school for Political Science and International Relations? The man was an EXCELLENT diplomat. Just look at his coalition building in Gulf War 1.

Like father like, um, er, not son.

Add another to UBC.

University College, Oxford University (hopefully). Took a year out, but baring me messing up my exams, should matriculate in the Autumn.

B.A. Economics and Management - show me the money!

My brother graduates on 24th June, with a BA in Maths from Pembroke College, Cambridge. He defered graduation, as he spent last summer doing research at CalTech, but also gets his certificate of advanced mathematics (Cambridge 4th year). But he's staying there to do a PhD in some aviation mathematics.

So it is true that a BA < BSc.

Depends where you go. Some universities just offer a BA as a force of habit. I think my brother's got a BA in Maths, and being Cambridge, that's just maths. No arts courses whatsoever (although he did do a computational project).

Hey Drogue, do get in touch if you get in to Univ though.

[Drogue]

I will

Been working tirelessly the last few weeks, so hoping I've done enough. Got economics next monday and wednesday, and maths and mechanics the monday and wednesday after. If I only needed an A in one of them, like last year, I'd be confident. As it is, it's pretty much in the balance.

[Provost Harrison]

Cool. Well I was only at univ a couple of weeks ago for a reunion thing. Was pretty cool to be back!

[Ben Kenobi]

As I said above, my best friend got a BS in English at Michigan; she simply took more sciences than arts, but concentrated in English.

Yeah, same here. Almost half my degree is science credits from my first two years.

Currently undertaking a B.A. at the University of Alberta.

Just switched my major from PoliSci to History... was it a mistake? Only that sick old prankster, Time, will tell.

I hate that bastard.

[Inverse Icarus]

Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, New York (outside Albany).

Going into my 3rd year. BS in Computer Science and Psychology (focusing on AI, or as my school calls it "Cognitive Science"), minor in Management and Technology.

I overloaded the hell out of my schedule, and if I chose to I could graduate a full year early. I probably won't though

I'm not sure where I'm going when I get out of college. My two main "dreams" are working for a gaming company (I've already made a few simple games with groups on campus), or doing research on Artificial Intelligence. I'm going to suck up to some professors next semester and try to get some research done while I'm at school.

My school has some system where they pay for your graduate school if you become a teacher's assistant, and do research with a professor on a "professional level", whatever that means. I may take advantage of that. Only time will tell.

I'm minoring in management to appease my mother, who hates that I'm majoring in Psychology. Maybe one day I'll get my MBA or something.

You don't necessarily even need a degree. My mother got into medical school without an undergad degree and with only about 2 years of college courses. But she was wicked smart and aced her MCATs.
