What do you study?

[PastMember]

I have an Associates of Science degree in Commercial Art from Hinds Community College. I was on the Deans List, graduated with high honors and got to spend 3 of my 4 semesters in the honors dorm. Which was so cool. It was like a little apartment and not a dorm room at all. Yeah, I had roommates, but that wasn't a big deal... we had free cable, a full sized fridge, a stove and microwave, a living room and dining area as well as the bedrooms. I loved living on campus.

I wanna go back to school some day.

if you want advice or have questions, Patrick, i've been working as a Vet Tech for 3 years now and can give you all kinds of insight.  Its my part time, fun job to take me away from the stress of corporate marketing.   its a wonderful field though  And Animal Science in college as a major ROCKED.  

Mikel, you're not that much older than alot of us!  We understand :P  I didn't have a calculator in high school either and I remember when the first computers came to live at school.  wow, what a big deal that was!

Colleges aren't so important in this country and the terminology's different.  I didn't go to university.

I'm now retired.

I sit on-line all day studying the Triad FAQ pages.  Does that count?

Well, then at least you would not stare at me blankly when I mention slide-rules.  Had the darndest time trying to explain that to my twenty-something co-worker

I have a Bachelor's in Animal Science from Texas A&M University.  Whoop!  Hey Avril, my brother in law went to Rutgers!  Great school:)

I would like to go to Vet School and quit this whole Marketing thing in the Ag Industry I'm doing now and open my own practice someday.   Large animals!

I am so excited that I found another animal science person!  That is what I am majoring in right now... in my 3rd year. I totally love it! I don't want to be a vet though... I want to work with endangered species.

That was my original dream Anwen I wanted to be a wolf biologist in the WORST way.  I still do.  Its a VERY hard field to get into though, and you have to know someone in it.  Or be so attactive they gotta have ya!  I hope you succeed though, because then YOU can hire ME! LOL  Animal Science is awesome; college was the BEST.   Imagine! I got credit for halter breaking a colt for a show!  that was like PLAY for me! LOL

And yes Mikel, I DO know what a slide-rule is!  whoo hoo!

I've got a BS in Psychology from the University of Houston and am working on my special education teaching certificate.

As soon as I find a job, I can start my internship and complete my certification. The only problem is no one wants to hire someone without a certificate and I need a job to get certified.

However, I do have a long term sub job coming up with the Preschool Program for children with disabilities (PPCD) that I am excited about. I just got the call this afternoon, but can't call them back until Monday. My dream teaching job is either a PPCD class or a Life Skills/Developmental classroom.  I like resource, but it's too much like regular ed for me.

Well, I was originally going to go to school and get my BS degree in Nursing...I had a full scholarship plus cash...and then I became bipolar.

I finally decided what I want to do with my life! I am going back to school in the fall to work on my degree in biology. I want to teach biology at the community college level.

Now I feel illiterate, I only have degree that equals BA in business/commercial with specialization studies in computers  (mostly learning to use windows office, e-mail programs and project programs) Since it's been over ten years, my computer skills are outdated.

My school had a farm... I have discovered that I love donkeys! And lambing time is sooo much fun because all the AVS students go and play with the new lambs!  

Oh, and the farm got pigs last year! I know most people think pigs are gross and dirty... but they are actually the cleanest and smartest farm animal! And their babies are just the cutest things ever!!!
