Education, what college or university do you go to?!?

I done studing and it's like 1 in the morning rite now, so I just decided to start this thread because I want all of you that are in college to represent yourself here. People with higher edu will lead the future and it's something to be very proud of. So just say what school you go to and your major.

I'm attending University of R.I, USA Computer Sci

Oh really? Gates dropped out of college.

Also, does that "higher" education include not correctly spelling the word education?

I've been out of school for a year, but I haven't quite finished all the requirements to fully be degreed. Gotta get a couple of projects done before I can be a paid-in-full Bachelors of Computer Science.

Of course, I'm just doing my best Bill Gates impression. http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/wink.gif (Scott hasn't finished school yet either... took about 3 years)

[krusty the klown]

Bill G8s also reckoned the Internet would amount to nothing and computers would only need a few kB of RAM, yet my PC seems to run better with 196MB than it does with 128...

People with an education will lead the future? I beg to differ.

Neither of my parents attended a college or university, and they have combined incomes which are probably higher than everyone's income on your block, combined. And that's assuming your neighbourhood earns a nice living.

The only way I can see myself attending college is if I think it would betterment my future in any way, shape or form and/or if it is required for what I want to do with my life.

I would most likely attend UCLA, or UC Davis.

I went all the way to elementary! 4th grade
that is!

I just got my GED though and am studying Computer Certifications ( does that count? )

I was fortunate to know a bookworm and a very smart person growing up, so I was very much into books and stuff when I was a kid.

But nowadays every job is looking for an Actual Diploma or equivalent, so it pays to stay in school! ( and drink your milk..don't do drugs!..heh heh ok enough Mr. T. http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif

Curiosity helped me to learn a lot!
Since my first computer about three years ago it has sparked a interest and a love for the endless wonder of these machines!
I am just glad that I was born curious and
like so many different things versus some people that I have known and seen that don't seem to have a passion for anything.

I started at Gerogia Tech, transferred to Savannah College of Art and Design, and am finishing my degree at Art Center College of Design. Be careful. Look at you education as a long term financial investment. That's an arguement both for and against it.
