What College or University are you attending, what are you studying and why? - MERGED

Starting university.. again... at Goldsmiths College in London, my course is English and Comparative Literature.

I already studied at uni one year in Sweden, anthropology, but I wasn't happy with the course, about living in Sweden, or about my life in general, so I moved to England, I've worked for a year now and am dying to get back to studying. Why English lit? I'm actually surprised that I didn't consider studying literature before (but that was partly because I lived in Sweden and didn't want to study Swedish literature) because reading has always been my passion and I wat to write as well. Maybe I'll get a post-grad degree in teaching, become an English teacher traveling the world while writing books. Who knows? :) Either way, can't wait for uni to start.
 
Maccomb Community College in Michigan. I just had my first class today. Ended up being late cause the fuckin parkinglot was so packed. It reminded me of high school a little bit...walking into class late, with chinked out eyes and a stupid grin. I think I'm gonna enjoy college.

I have no idea what I'm going to do with my life though. I'm just getting my basics out of the way and then after 2 years I'll probably transfer to a University and go from there.
 
I'm in Northfield, Minnesota, studying religion. (If you're another bluelighter from Northfield send me a PM!)
 
from '99-'03: university of central florida in orlando studying philosophy. stopped when i couldn't do the hour drive commute all the time. also...financial difficulties.

from spring of '07: daytona beach community college and i will be starting the nursing program soon. had an epiphany one day and decided to say fuck philosophy. i would love to be in the o.r.
it's way closer (EIGHT MINUTES!!!), cheaper, and i dig going to a fun little school with a bunch of 18 year olds. hee hee.
 
Cornell for computational biology and economics. It's a nice mix of snobby but tolerable rich kids and hardworking, middle-class kids. Oh, and lots of Asians... people always wonder why they get the grades they do (in general), and the answer is simple - they are in the library all the damn time while you are out getting wasted.
 
University of Pittsburgh, studying molecular biology. My current plan is to go on to grad school and get a PhD in pharmacology, so I can be a professional drug nerd.
 
Lewis Clark State College in North Idaho. Right now I'm an English major, but I think I'm gonna change to something else like Criminal Justice because I want to go to Law School someday. I also want to transfer to the University Of Idaho, which is not far away from here.
 
Brooks Institute of Photography in Santa Barbara, California. Pursing a BA in Professional Photography. It's an accellerated school (BA in 3 years instead of 4...semesters are crammed into 2 month "sessions" with one week breaks inbetween).

I've been here about 9 months and in that amount of time I've endured more stress than I ever thought I could handle, lol. But I'm still breathing...

School of the Photographic Arts : Ottawa, 2-3 year program. School's too new to qualify for OSAP (student loans stuff), so it's a damn good thing I had an edu fund :|

I hear ya man. Next session I'll be getting to play with a $15,000 digital backing for my 4x5 camera.
Needless to say, I need to find some kind of insurance...
