who else is a student?
« on: December 03, 2005 - 01:25:37 PM »
just procrastinating from doing some work, i know theres a few other members that are in college too, just wondering who, where and what major? I'm a senior at Cornell, a dairy science major, plus some crop classes and business classes.

Im also a college student, my major is Electrical Engineering....more specifically applied electronics/airway facilities. This is my 2nd year and hope to have my certification at the end of this year and (2) Associate's degrees at the end of my 3rd year :biggrin:. My freshman year I attended the University of Toledo. After discovering that all my classes can be transferred from my local community college (joint partnership), I decided to save 10K+ this year and take classes back home. After I get my 2 degrees I will look for a job over the summer, if I cant find one then I will be going back to Toledo for another 1.5-2 years  :crying:

On a side note, how are finals for you????......Luckily I only had two finals this semester and since I have an A in one of the classes, I dont have to take that final :biggrin:

Ohh and please tell me what a dairy science major does for a living(I have a general idea) and what classes do you have to take for that major????

Right now im in college to add on to my previous degree. I have an associate in automotive restoration technology, and now im adding in for a bachelors in industrial management.  Lucky i have a job in my field, so i do work on street rods and classic cars when im not at class. Gotta love that.

I am in school also.  I am in my 4th year at St Johns college of pharmacy in New York City.  Its a 6 year Phd program.  Always plenty of work to do and to put off doing lol.  In the spring of 07 I go on clinical rotations 9 different hospitals and community setting.  I cant wait for that because I'll be out of the class room for a year.

I learned CPR on Tuesday, if that counts. It is very brutal, not at all like you see on TV.

I was in a University last year, studying to become a Veterinarian.  Decided that I really didn't want to go through 8-12 more years of school, so I left at the end of the year.  Now I'm saving up to go to a 2 year Veterinary Technition school, so I will be a student again in a year or 2.

I hear ya street challenged73, I just graduated from mechanical engineering at Dalhousie University(Halifax, Nova Scotia) last year. It sure doesn't get any easier after the first couple years..lol. I wanted to get into the automotive industry, but there was only a few jobs with General Motors Canada, and Ford Canada offered, both management and no design. So I focused on the oil and gas industry, had a couple work terms with Husky Energy and Exxon. Seems to be where most of the work is in Canada, so i'll keep my automotive intrests as a hobby..lol. Its a lot of work but its well worth it graduation day!!

Killer-
My finals arent too bad, i took one early, my integrated pest managment class has a take home test and my dairy nutrition is a group oral final (not what it may sound), its a very in depth and complicated class so its better than a writen test.  Most dairy science majors like me are from dairy farms, and most of us return back to farms. Some become dairy nutritionist (they make diets for cows) and some work for farm credit which is the major ag lending company in the US. Some of the classes i've taken include, dairy cattle principles, dairy nutrition, herd health, dairy cattle selection, farm business managament, farm finance, marketing, ag business strategies, soils, weed managment, grains, forages, whole farm nutrient management and i'm also taking a class on wines next semester. Thats a majority of the classes we take, i didnt take them all but most of them. Its not a very time consuming major for the most part, minimal studying and lots of time for the bar. Engineering sounds like it requires more studying than i do, not one of my favorite activities.

You lucky duck.  If I had the chance to do it all over again I would be at Cornell right now for Veterinary Science.  Good luck to you!  Now go hit the books  :banghead:
