Status: offline 		I went into the Army after high school, then went to college on the G.I. Bill.  A.A. in history from a community college, then  B.A. in history, concentration in middle eastern history,  from University of California.  Also alumni of American University in Cairo. 

I loved college.  Some day would like to go back and get BA in Arabic Language and Literature, and a BA in Art History. Maybe an MA in education and/or teaching credentials.

Like that is so going to happen <sigh>

Also certified by the American Tarot Association to read Tarot Cards :)

I wish I hadn't been such a fool in school, but like Nietzsche said, "wish in one hand, shit in the other, see which fills up the quickest".

Seriously, though, I studied history and anthropology as an honors student at Purdue University, and, after repeated attempts to pass my core Algebra, spanning two years, I was politely asked not to come back the next semester.  Now I'm a baby-popping housewife.  I like it this way a lot better.

To the OP, I have a Bachelor of Sciences, though not telling what I do on the forums...  Upon initial entry into the university, I found my high school had let me down, by not adequately preparing me, but by mid-end of my college years, I was in such a good rhythm in terms of learning and getting good grades, that I now regret not staying for my Master's.   I don't need my master's now, but think I will in my late years go for some business/administration classes.  M

Status: offline 		In the course of my life i obtained three undergraduate degrees: In the 70's, i graduated in Business Management.....that degree and one dollar garnared me the honor of being an "Administrative Aid" who answered phones and made coffee. i went back and took the necessary additional courses to get a degree in accounting. i worked for a huge mortgage lending firm, sitting at  a desk each day entering numbers on a computer for about 9 dollars an hour. My children, high maintenance beings that they are, continued to need things like clothes, shoes, foods, and school tuition....so off i went, back to school again and obtained a degree that led to my RN licensure.  That one did well financially for me and my progeny, but i still have not obtained my educational goal...i do so want to be a nail tech, dipping those radioactive chemicals into that little crystal pot and smearing them across a bevy of nails, all the while rapidly speaking in Vietnamese to my coworkers. *sigh* i am doing well in nail laquering, but steadily flunking Vietnamese.

Took all formal education with a crate of salt, still do.

Status: offline 		I went to a state college a long time ago. One of those hippie freely structured type things. Learned alot, but didn't graduate. Later went to a big state university...a good one...to study anthropology/archaeology. Also didn't graduate. I think I need one more year to get a B.A. In between, I went to a very hard core electronics trade school and learned lots of great theory and everything you'd ever want to know about vacuum tube technology...just minutes before the whole world switched over to completely solid-state devices. I am the last person on Earth instructed in the use of a sliderule...again, just days before the widespread appearance of the affordable pocket calculator. Lately have been working my way through several levels of EMT training. I am an EMT-B now, and will be going for EMT-I soon...I think.

I'm an archaeologist for bucks, and serve a volunteer fire department as EMS captain and general firefighting goon. Most importantly, I am the guy who takes care of kitties Otis and Daisy, and the lover of  the beautiful sylphette. I'm a so-so drummer and a fairly good singer.

Published a collection (recueil?) of poetry that actually didnt work...but oh well, i tried huh? ;)
I'm actually doing a Baccalaureat in french litterature at my U.D.M university. Got two years left and after that...maybe going back to CEGEP and making a DEP in horseback riding. I'll see about that.

Seriously, I'll never pay it off.  Which kind of bums me out since I'll never be able to afford to go back to school.

Status: offline 		I did one miserable year at a small, women's college before taking some time off to bounce around Italy by myself.  Aimlessly bouncing wasn't quite for me, so I enrolled in some art history and Italian history classes in Florence.  Then, eventually came back home and got my B.A. in English Literature from New York University, and minored in history and anthropology.  I'm very slowly working on a Master's in Publishing, but it's not at all structured and I'm not very motivated to finish it.

Worked in a factory for a couple of years, figured out it was worse than school.

Got a BA in Sociology.

Self-taught German, rated fully fluent at one time.

Later, got a MA in International Political Affairs.

Lots of other off-the-wall training and stuff, but nothing I'd care to share in an open forum.

Formal education  have never had much apparent direct correlation with my careers..

oh, yeah.  I'm an Autodidact too, in lots of stuff.  Even when I attended schools
