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.

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.

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.

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.Last edited by YOURADHERE; 03-01-2013 at 10:26 AM.

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.

I'm guessing you did a lot of work with Billy Barnard? Great guitarist and great guy. I'm currently at UMD for mechanical engineering, but thinking about switching to a technical degree
