I *was* intending to do a CS major/Russian minor.

If the military doesn't work out, I might do EE/Math double major, since I'm sure I'll have most of the math classes I need anyway.

Actually if it's a good culinary program she could make good money. My brother's soon-to-be-fiancee plans to go to culinary school and we at first wondered the same thing. Then I did a little research and found out what a lot of this program's graduates make and I was impressed. Granted, you'd have to work 'odd' hours from real-world hours so that could potentially cause relationship issues down the line, but my brother does studio work in the music industry so their 'weird' hours will be a perfect match for each other.

BS in Computer Science. Graduated in Dec 2000 from Virginia Tech.

Got out just in time to see the bubble pop. Fortunately still have the same job I got right out of college.

Who is the other person that voted for Education? Have you graduated yet and what are you teaching and where?

Computer Engineering. Always has been, always will be. Guess I'm lucky I figured it out early, some of my friends are still having trouble figuring out a major, and it's setting them back quite a ways.

Started out as a Computer Engineering major, but I just switched to Software Engineering.

So how's that programming project going?
