College Thread

We need one so us youngins can talk about school and stuff and chat while bored in class

 

im almost done with my degree. its kind of fucked up tho. my capstone class is an internship and i have to pay for the college credits for the class plus work without pay so im pretty much paying a couple grand to have an unpaid job. fuck america lol

 

I had to do this for grad school last year and it made me so mad, like the internship was good but it felt wrong

 

I'm in community college

 

Beat decision. My community college had classes as good as my university at a fraction of the cost.

 

I assume you meant best? Haha. It's not as bad as I expected for sure and its good for helping me figure out where I'm tryin to go next

 

Community college is described as a bad options because it's essentially the same education but a fifth of the price. Like, the same professors that teach the core classes at FSU teach at TCC, for example. I'm at UCF right now taking classes online towards my English degree.

 

I've had chili for dinner the past five days

 

I had ramen last night. And cereal the night before haha.

 

Nice thread idea. I’ve got one year left of undergrad. Majors anyone?

 

Entrepreneurship/Corporate Innovation/Management major at the best school in the big ten.

 

I'm in Journalism. My marks are great, but I'm still feeling pretty lost at the moment

 

Oh I didn't mention my major. Audio production

 

I did an English Literature degree, finished about two years ago. It kind of ruined my motivation to read for fun for a while but I enjoyed it overall.

 

My planned major is education

 

I see there’s a variety of majors then, that’s pretty cool. I’m a double in finance and economics.

 

Jumping back into college after a 9 month break the right way by taking a condensed matter physics class. I'm a bit worried I'll be a bit stale but I'm also pretty stoked for that class cuz it'll be really interesting.

 

That's a great outlook to have man

 

Digital Filmmaking major.

My senior film is going to be a sketch comedy pilot of my comedy duo. my professors rule.

 

I guess I technically double majored in sociology and social sciences and have a minor in women's studies. Batting 1000 for the "useless majors" lol but I have a decent job so it's cool.

I've been taking college classes for work while working full time as well. I have a related degree to my field but they wanted me to get some credits that were related more closely. It's not hard academically but the classes are not as interesting as what I went to school for and I'm tired after working so it sucks. This is actually the first term I'm not taking classes. They extended my deadline to do them so that's nice.

 

28 years old in my fourth college now. Making sure this is the last one. Freshman are killing me. Ugh.

 

Special education major with two years left. I've also been in college since 2010!

 

Going back to school tomorrow at 26. Been contemplating it the last couple years but was kinda nervous about being "too old." But I figured if I'm doing something to move forward in life then it doesn't matter how old I am.

 

if you're in your 20's i wouldnt worry about being too old for college. honestly, i dont think anyone should worry at any age. ive had many classes with people who you would perceive as "too old" but no one, at least in my experience, treats them any differently. maybe its just the school i go to where its kind of a normal thing for older people to take classes.
