FC: What was your major in college?
- Thread starter fairgambit
- Start date
Bob, I was sure you would be political science, with all the "outrage".
I apply the scientific method in my development and application of OUTRAGE.

You'll get no pleasure out of it!I minored in anhedonia. Now I major in it. Can we talk?
I love to hear the head of some Fortune 100 company bitching about government bureaucracy. Private industry sustains a lot of dead wood. A great deal, more than anyone would ever think. When a NYSE company says it is "lean and mean," imagine Chris Farley.
No, it was with PSU. It was set up that in 2 years you got your associates then moved on into either wildlife or Fisheries exclusively, and in 2 years you would get your BS. Absolutely loved the program, but careers after college were very difficult to come by and the salary for people in that field are very very minimal
arts and letters...

Graduated in '74, went to work as an engineer and went back and forth between engineering and underground production. Finished my career in safety through enforcement of regulations.
Wally was great. You should Wiki Wally
. Hell of a story. Piloted a B-17 bomber in WW2. POW. Wally was an excellent trumpeter also. In his POW camp there were, coincidentally, other fine musicians. They formed a band after scrounging up instruments from the German guards and elsewhere. The band was called The Serenaders. They played outside to mask the noise while the tunnelers dug. Fifty escapees from the camp were caught and killed by the Germans. The camp and escape was the basis for the movie The Great Escape. In the movie a choir was used instead of a band. That's what Wiki says and I like it, so I'm stickin' to it.
Awesome field, but I would fall asleep at work... as I did during my rads rotation and lecture series LOL
Hope part of your market sector are individuals who have specific licenses in New Jersey Mass CT and PA
If not PM me and we can discuss off line.
BS in Meteorology (Took enough advanced Physics and Math for Minors in both. LOL!) I don't know how I got through it!
BS in Education (Mathematics and Computer Science)
M Ed in Vocational Education
Spent the majority of my career as Computer Analyst/Programmer and then Application Development Supervisor.

Thank God. I thought I was the only one. Of course, I did not go to law school at UCLA. It was east of the Mississippi, but I never have divulged the actual source of my legal genius.
I'm going to guess that you had Professor Murray for Contracts/UCC; or had he left before you enrolled?
Finance with a minor in Economics
Sounds boring but believe me, I had the best 4 years of my life at PSU! Was able to get the minor by staying for the summer before my senior year. That summer was amazing!

Ah, nicely done. As we both know, John E. Murray, Jr. was the foremost authority on contracts in the country, and Murray on Contracts has been used in law schools nationwide. He was a giant in the Pittsburgh area, and I will admit I knew the man. Whether that came as a result of classroom contact at Villanova, Pitt, or Duquesne, or outside the classroom, I am not prepared to say. I will say John was brilliant and the Pittsburgh legal community mourned his loss in 2015. Rest in Peace.
PSU won't let their grads (in science anyway) stay for grad school. But I met my wife here, so that was a win.Who knew we had Pitt and OSU grads on this board?
No argument from me. It's a lot cheaper than Bucks County, where I grew up.
Yea - LSP's and the other various state designations - mostly we insure large companies like TRC etc. most you would know and may have worked with or for. People would be amazed at the state of the Environment just a stones throw from their front door in many cases. Not good and the funding for cleanups is tough sometimes.

So, you are saying you like math?
I remember the name, but I don't recall being in his class. Of course I'm more forgetful these days.
Math?
OK, why did the obtuse angle go to the beach?
Answer:
Because it was over 90 degrees.
It's an old joke, but it's all I got.

Actually, I never heard that one before.
Good one.
You'd make an awful accountant though. Here's why?:
3 guys have an interview for an accounting job at a big firm.
The first guy goes in and the CFO says to him, "What's 2 + 2?" So the guy pulls out a calculator, presses a few buttons, looks up when he's finished and says, "4."
The CFO thanks him for coming in and tells him that they'll let him know down the road.
The second guy is then ushered into the CFO's office and the CFO asks him, "What's 2 + 2?" The candidate scratches his chin thoughtfully, pulls out a pad of paper and a pencil, and starts scribbling down some figures. After a moment or two he smiles and says, "I've got it! The answer is 4."
The CFO says, "Thank you very much. We'll get back to you."
The third candidate walks in, shakes the CFO's hand and takes a seat. The CFO asks the young man, "What's 2 + 2?" The aspiring accountant thinks a moment, flashes a smile, and leans over to whisper in the CFO's ear, "What do you want it to be?" whereupon the man was immediately offered the position with a lucrative signing bonus.
After scrolling thru all the messages, I may be the first one with this major...
BA, Mass Communication...concentration on Broadcast Journalism.
So yes, some of us in the media do have degrees.
