When did you graduate?

Just wondering where I am compared to other people. I'm in 1st year psych at Carleton and 26, hoping to graduate in my early 30s. At what age did you graduate from university/college if you did go to it? While I'm at it, I might as well ask what your major was. It would be interesting to see what everyone is specialized in.

I tried Photojournalism at Loyalist first. Our two main teachers were alcoholics who only liked the students in our class that went drinking with them. Dropped that.

Went into Television Broadcasting. Did well in that until I got sick for 10 days in the last month of class and missed studio time. Since the studios are booked months in advance, making up time is virtually impossible. The annoying thing is that even if you had an A average, which I did, if you missed one course you had to retake the year. So much for TV broadcasting :-/

I then went to Fanshawe, where I studied drinking for several months. I excelled at that, as it was more fun than having to take first year business in order to get into programming.

So I guess my major was not majoring

I even walked out of another school to take a job offer doing Y2K contracting. So I'm like a serial student

I've thought about going back to school too. But I'm not good at learning in the classroom. I'm more hands on, which can be a pain.

Best of luck with your courses

U of Guelph, graduated in '94 (@23) with an Honours B. Sc., Specialized Honours Fisheries Biology, with Honours. What a title, eh? At the time, in the Guelph biology program, they had minors, majors, and 'specialized honours'- more focused than a major. All of the programs like Marine Biology, Wildlife Biology, etc. were 'spec. honours'. I believe they have moved away from this system now, so at least people's degrees will be shorter:-)
