Pure Math ftw!! I am also in the honors program for math here at my school

You should consider getting a graduate degree in pure math if you are qualified enough to be in one of the top schools in mathematics. The only thing you need is a passion in math, which I'm sure you have lol

There is a bunch of people in RIT that I know. Do you happen to know Steven Dearstyne or James Brown?

Agreed with Wind, it's great to see a lot of people pursuing higher education.

As for me, I finished undergrad in April (Molecular Biology and Biochemistry at York University in Toronto). Now I'm in Medicine at the University of Toronto.

Computer System's Technology like the OP. Specializing in Networking and Linux Administration. Hoping I get a job as an Admin or get my 'Cisco Certified Inter-networking Engineer' certificate depending on how I turn out liking each course.

MrRubix · 11-7-2010, 09:17 AM

Penn/Wharton graduate. Majored in a bunch of finance, math, and stats etc.

Rubin0 · 11-7-2010, 09:42 AM

I'm a super senior at Hofstra University in NY. I will be graduating next month and moving on to grad school. I'm hoping to get into John Jay's forensic psychology program. I also want to live in manhattan so that is a good first step.

**HoneyMelonCalibrator** · 11-7-2010, 09:55 AM

I'm a junior at DePaul University. Double majoring in finance/journalism.

Fun stuff.

I was actually going to go to Waterloo for Computer Science until I found out I'd be miserable in that, and I know what you mean, everybody there is Asian.

**smartdude1212** · 11-7-2010, 10:26 AM

First year undeclared at the University of Regina but I'm really thinking about Honours Math with a minor in History.

I could also see myself hitting up Waterloo someday.

Also first year university is much easier than anybody ever told me.

Lying ****ers.

**All_That_Chaz** · 11-7-2010, 10:57 AM

Got my bachelors from Northwestern University in Evanston, IL in Economics with a Business Institutions minor in 2007. At Rutgers in Camden now rapidly working towards a teaching certification, which thanks to No Child Left Behind, requires me to complete a math major =(.

blitzkrieg- · 11-7-2010, 11:03 AM

I go to a local state school right now but I'm looking to transfer to either Syracuse or Missouri. Majoring in Journalism so either of those schools would work well. Just not sure yet.

Pearlace · 11-7-2010, 11:55 AM

I'm a junior at the University of Texas at Austin, currently majoring in Architectural Engineering and minoring in Interior Design. Working on attaining competence in the structural design of buildings from high-rise to long-span structures and from commercial buildings to complex industrial facilities.

Currently taking:

-Intro to Design I
-Structural Analysis
-Applied Thermodynamics
-Elementary Mechanics of Fluids
-Materials and Methods of Building Construction

Excited for the Spring 2011 Semester!

**flashpantss** · 11-7-2010, 11:58 AM

University of West Florida (freshman) with a major of Computer Science and a minor in Game Development. Could have gone to FSU(Florida State) /UM (University of Maine), but chose the smaller school, probably transfer.

Prime8 · 11-7-2010, 11:59 AM

I'm a junior at Texas Tech double majoring in Mathematics and Computer Science.

**bender5** · 11-7-2010, 01:00 PM

I guess technically I'm a college sophomore or something like that, but I'm more of a proud self-educated college dropout.

I learned more on the streets in the 2 years I spent in "college" (I go to a community college within walking distance of home) than I ever could have at a 4 year school.

Hey man, did you make 700k this year?

Yeah, one worry I had was that it was going to be one of those bull**** degrees where you don't actually learn anything, but the program is reasonably intense.

Nope, there's 16,000 people here but I'll keep an eye out.
