[Clay]

i thought it would be cool if we all said what college we go to and what our majors are.  if you're one of the supercool people that isnt in college, just say what you do for a living.

Im Tim, i go to Pensacola Christian College and im double majoring in Business Management and Marketing with a minor in Finance.

I don't go to college yet. When I do go I will be going to become veterinarian.

 

[rach]

I go to Texas Christian University in Fort Worth, Texas. I'm double-majoring in Spanish and Early Childhood Education, (I want to be a bilingual kindergarten teacher. ) I'm currently a freshman, but probably won't graduate until 2007 because I have to take so many hours.

RayNay you're an English major? what is possessing your soul? j/k. wow.....i would never be able to live through an english major. ill stick with business. do you want to teach it in a high school or college when you graduate?

 

[AngelAmidala]

I went to Marist College in Poughkeepsie, NY and got a BA in Communication Arts (Radio/TV/Film).

I now work there, and take classes part time in order to keep up my learning, take as many religion-based classes as I can, and keep up my math skills for when I take the GRE to get into grad school.

i graduated from college seven years ago. i escaped with a degree in natural resources.
i've yet to use it.

since graduation my life has consisted of two things- temporary jobs and great journeys. it's an interesting cycle...work, travel; work; travel; work, travel...i think you get the idea.

at the moment i'm a carpenter, that is until i once again get the itch to wander.

i love my nomadic existence. i wouldn't trade it for anything.

 

[caley]

Music Education with an instrumental focus.  I take my exam for my entire major on Wednesday.  I have to play flute, saxaphone, trombone, bassoon, clarinet, marimba, snare drum, and timpani.  I also have to play a transposed score on the piano in concert pitch, sight sing a line of music, sight read on the trumpet, and play the piano in all four clefs (treble, alto, tenor, and bass). I'm freakin' out!

 

[rach]

Caley, and you're ON LINE?!? Go practice or something.

you really haven't used it?  like i said, i'm majoring in environmental science, and my emphasis is on conservations of natural resources.  i'm not really worried, God has definitely led me down this path, and i will travel it fearlessly (as fearlessly as i can).  so have you not used it by choice, or because you couldn't find a job in it?

 

[Mr.Cheese]

I kind of don't wanna say my location since I'm still paranoid about stuff like that.
But I'm a double major in English and Religion. I just have one more English class to finish the major. So RayNay and I are both crazy with English!
I wanna go to seminary and study greek some more. I want to be a professor.

Don't hurry through school. It is more than a piece of paper. We use the term "education" flippantly. Don't just get a degree. Get an education. Take advantage of the opportunity you have to learn. If it takes you an extra year to get through, no big deal.
Ok. I'll shut up now.

 

[IslandBreeze]

Mr. Cheese,

I see where you're coming from, but I TOTALLY disagree. I'm going to be a teacher, right? An elementary teacher. Can you explain to me what takes FIVE YEARS to teach third graders how to multiply and divide? Nevermind the fact that, if I teach in Michigan, I'll be in school anyway for the rest of my life...(They make teachers take continuing ed. classes throughout their careers.) So, if I want to start working, I have no choice but to hurry up and get done. And I'll be in school the rest of my career anyway, so why not rush?

 

(If anyone can't tell, I'm EXTREMELY irritated with the way education degrees work here in MI)

 

[Mr.Cheese]

You don't have to keep it in!
Go ahead. Tell us how you really feel!


Ok, maybe you're an exception.
Most people run through school hating it and hurrying to get out. They get a degree but haven't learned a thing. That's a waste.

Been there done that Caley and it is a nightmare(those solfeggio classes are the worst)

Graduated last year with a Bachelor's degree in music Majoring Music education with emphasis on piano and classical guitar( but as caley stated, we need to learn all those instruments to teach)

My worst experience was playing figured bass(baroque), playing all those different clefs(and singing them!!!), and playing an orchestral score using a piano(i did not sleep for two days just to figure that out before my final exam)

 

[Tami]

I'm a stay-at-home-mom. I attend God's School of Motherhood. I'm majoring in diaper-changing and spit-up.

 

[IslandBreeze]

GOOD FOR YOU! God bless you and women like you, Tami!

My prayer is to see at least one parent in every home (mom OR dad) staying at home until their kids go to school!
