The "Who here went to college thread?"

[Rubman]

Because at this point, why the fuck not? might as well stop ruining the other thread.

what'd you guys study?

journalism here.

[backwithabang]

Ill tell you why the fuck not... BA in cultural anthropology MA in medical anthropology and medical ethics. I make more money operating a backho and flipping bikes then I did putting 60 hours a week in at Loyola medical university in Chicago. My diplomas currently hang over my shitter at home

I went for a month for culinary arts, then I dropped out because I was a better chef than the teachers.. it's not rocket science, and after seeing the 3000+ students enrolled, I knew the job market would be flooded with wannabe cooks in a place where there's maybe 10 nice restaurants..

so I started fucking with (old) bikes, and have a good job doing that, I'll be getting shipped out to Cali for a new job, fucking with old bikes.

If I were to goto college again, I'd probably go for mechanical engineering.

[2stroketim]

Went to Northern Arizona Univ -English/Poli-Sci double major, double minor in criminal justice/business mgmt.

Enrolled at University of Oregon law school, then said fuck it and went to do something I enjoy.

[RyanPitch]

Bachelors in Civil Engineering cuz I liked making skate ramps. Masters in Electrical Engineering because I wanted to know how my tube amp worked.

Still, I didn't learn about motors, machining, or how to use tooling until I started working on bikes. The practical side of things comes from actually doing stuff, and I'm light years behind most of the guys here in that category.

[Bdehlin]

Music Industry Studies degree from CSUN. Also have a MMI degree I'm not using, but has paid for itself in flipping bikes over the years.

[JamesM]

Associates in Collision Repair Technology.

I did...temporarily at least. I started with high intentions, majored in pre-vet but was an immature 17/18 year old who fucked off way too much. At the time I was working for my dad part time/full time when off and went to school for about 2 years then took about 1 1/2 year off to work/get my shit straight. Ended up going back for another 3 semesters majoring in Ag Science/Ag Education with the intention of becoming an Ag teacher(I was/am country as fuck). I finished up the spring semester and was supposed to be transferring schools to finish my degree but never did. I came to the realization that I still had about ~2 years left which meant racking up a shit ton of debt in student loans etc etc. I went to work full time for my dad and have been full time for about the past 2-3 years. Love my job, make the same, if not more money than I would have had I became an Ag teacher, main difference is I'd just be graduating and I don't have a mountain of debt in front of me. Seems like the smarter financial decission. I think alot of people make the same mistake I almost did.

It should be noted that I do feel atleast a little shitty for not finishing/getting a degree. As in I'm partially disappointed in myself for the way I initially handled the whole college thing. Live and learn.

ETA: Just looked up the average ag teacher salary in my state....kinda glad I dodged that shit now. About $15k less a year than what I currently make plus I don't have to deal with shithead kids everyday.

Baccalaureate in Computer Science (Networking). Didn't graduate until I was 39. I figured computers are never leaving and combine that with my managerial experience, I will be able to manage fellow geeks until I die.
