So I'm going to be starting college for the first time at the end of August. (Freshman)
For all you college people out there, I'm curious. What is your major and, if you feel alright saying so, where do you go?
I'm a Communications Media Major. I want to work with newspapers and magazines, but my goal is be a part of a Christian magazine someday. I also might work with newspaper desgin too since I'm pretty good at it already. I'm going to Lock Haven University.
What about you?

This fall, I will enter as a first-year (even though I'm a college sophomore) undergrad at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, majoring in Theology. Eventually, I'd love to get a masters in missiology, but I'm ok with just a bachelor's.
And the year I spent at the University of Houston, I was a graphic design major.

I just graduated with my M.S degree in Food Science. By His Grace, GOD helped me survive my hellish years in grad school. *nods nods* GOD is good.
I will consider an Associate degree in some graphic/illustration major one day.

I graduated last year. I majored in English Single Subject Teacher Prep with and emphasis in Literture and Laungage, and History with and emphisis in Asia, particularly Japan. I was going to be a teacher but I'm not cutout for it. Plus I have no confidence in my spelling or grammer. Too bad i didn't realize this till the last semester. Right now I feel like a patetic failure even though I did get an A- on my senior paper I can't find a job. I went to Humboldt State University California.
I do though plan to eventually go to grad school and study Japanese History. I want to be a Historian. I just have to pay off HSU so I can get my diploma, and rewrite my paper. ANd find a good school.

... because shooraijin went to the same school for undergrad, although a different college within the university.
However, I went somewhere else entirely for my MD.

Much like you, DevotedFriend, I am also a communication student. I graduated in May with a BA in communication and a BS in computer information systems. I'll be attending grad school this fall to pursue my master's and doctorate in communication, with an emphasis on journalism.
Good luck with your communication studies, DevotedFriend!

...which is renowned for not having a foreign language requirement. Nevertheless, he pursued a B.A. in Linguistics. My college's rep for having the most strenuous graduation requirements is total baloney, since all [censored] colleges require the same number of units to graduate.

So you ARE pursuing a Ph. D. When I wrote Days, you didn't even have your Masters' yet, so that line about you being a Ph. D. candidate was a tad... premature.

B.E. Software Engineering.
Major is not set yet (first year engineering students all do similar classes), but I have a feeling I'm heading towards AI programming.
[edit] In case anyone cared, I didn't give up on entering gaming industry.

A lot of departments don't have foreign language requirements, at least at the undergrad stage. Even then it's usually restricted to the humanities.
So you ARE pursuing a Ph. D. When I wrote Days, you didn't even have your Masters' yet, so that line about you being a Ph. D. candidate was a tad... premature.
I'm trying to remember when that was now. Near when I was finished my Master's, I was given the offer of doing the Ph.D, and then there was a lag of a few months between when I finished my M.A.Sc and officially started my doctorate.

Also, even though the Gen Ed requirements at *horses run through the room* College ostensibly work out to the same units that you would need to take at one of the others, because of how *horses run through the window* College stipulates the 'programs of concentration' requirement I was able to write all my alleged gen ed and pre-med off as minors and have something to show for it (general biology, organic chemistry and Spanish literature). Plus, all the *horses run through the room* students are trying to cram into those specific courses and we at *horses run through the window* can take anything we want
I think I just gave away what school it is anyway. Or it's probably obvious now to anyone who lives nearby, at least.

I'm going to college in a year (I'm about to start my senior year in HS), but I'm considering University of Texas (Dad's been pushing UT since he went there) and University of North Texas to study art, because one of the AP teachers said that those two (and also Tech - which is TOO far away) are the best art schools in Texas. For now I have to decided which though...and also I don't know what I want to major in.. I don't really know what the options are in the art programs... so.. yeah!! I don't know what I want to do 'when I grow up' either... I need to figure that out and apply soon though O_o Heh!
