    Re: Whats Your Major?

    Information Technology. Not sure if I'm going to focus on networking or programming. Initially I wanted a well rounded education, but now that I'm getting into the programming more, I absolutely love it.

      Programming will allow you to open a lot of doors. Even if you don't want to code all day, it shows people you can think logically and know how to approach a problem and solve it.

          I have a Bachelor's in Marketing. I have had one since '07 and can't find work in that field so thinking of going back to school for something else. Anyone else on here have a marketing degree and can't find work?

              Go with the programming, many more avenues to choose from compared to networking.
              I've heard this "patience is a virtue" junk all my life. I'm happy to say I have no virtue, no scruples, and no desire to wait too long for anything. In my humble opinion instant gratification takes too long!

                    I program every day. If I didn't think it was fun, I would have picked something else other than being a software developer.

                      Sorry to bump this, but I am in the exact same boat. I want to either teach Elementary or Special Education. Either way I want to coach High School football.

                            Electronic Media (basically broadcasting), but I'm not going to use it... though that's a long and TOS-y story.

                              Sorry about the double post, but we had an assistant FB coach when I was in HS who was also a 2nd grade teacher. And my 4th grade teacher was an HS FB coach before he left our school as well.
