BS in Criminal Justice.
Had strong foundations in English & Math, but never "minored" them.

I've been tempted to return for a Masters in CJ or go for a law degree, then I come to my senses and say Screw it.

Bryant, My employer's daughter and her husband both graduated from TCU with Marketing degrees in 2000 and could not find jobs and both now work here for her dad which is not what they had planned on doing. I believe several of their friends have also had a tuff go getting any work in Marketing in the DFW area. A change to Business degree might not be a bad idea. But then again I am just seeing things through their eyes and maybe not seeing the bigger picture.

I never got a degree. wish I had one though!

B.Sc, M.Ma, Ph.D (so I've spent a while in school ... though about a M.D. also but decided it was too long, might do a med. masters at some point though).

math & physics hons. for the first one, just maths for the others. I do a fair bit of signal/image processing. Ironically nothing to do with photography as yet, although a lot of it is transferable, of course.
