I agree 100% with Wmcmanus regarding how to approach education. I'm looking forward to meeting you at canjam.

Oh, right...DePaul University, Chicago--BS Computer Science, Magna Cum Laude (Would have been Suma-, but I foolishly allowed them to factor in a couple B grades earned ten years previously

).

I went back to school in my late 20's (after being a stereo salesman for eight years). Going back to school--and sticking it out--was the toughest thing I ever did.

Hey, thanks. I'll only be there for Friday and Saturday morning and maybe until mid afternoon. Unfortunately, I have to fly out that evening from Miami and will need to leave early to beat rush hour traffic to get to the airport. So look for me! I'll be looking forward to meeting you as well.

This year, I'll do less listening and more meeting and greeting than ever simply because I won't have time for both! About the only thing that I want to hear for sure is the Smyth Research 'virtual surround processing' stuff because it represents such a big leap in technology for headphone listening. I've been looking forward to doing a demo for years and have missed out on chances to go to CES and so forth.

Well, take solace that after you graduate, then enter the real world, that sort of behavior will cease.

Human resources will not allow it.

Seriously.

Cal State Fullerton! (Too bad we lost so early in the NCAA Tourny)

Philosophy and Film Double Major.

I love the professors and the students, but something about this place gets on my nerves.

 

[thebikingengineer]

I'm currently a Materials Science and Engineering major at The Ohio State University, probably taking a specialization in Metallurgy but I haven't filed that particular paperwork yet.

It kicks my ass every day, but I wouldn't give it up for anything...

Well, maybe the jobs that come after the school part of it, but that's why I'm studying right?

University of Akron here, and judging by the headphones I see on campus, I'm the only head-fi'er there.

Cool! I did an internship at Rockwell Collins over in Cedar Rapids this past summer. I met two ISU Computer Engineers there.

Two things I learned about Iowa by the time I completed my three month stay there: you guys don't kid about 1) drinking and 2) football (especially ISU vs UOI---it's practically a holiday for you guys on that day).

Doing my undergrad at UT Austin was one of my best decisions ever. Excellent school, one of the best cities in the world and live music everywhere you look. Who could ask for more?

Economics major with a Computer Science minor

Hillsdale is a great liberal-arts school, and one of the best undergraduate schools for Austrian and Classical Economics. I plan to continue Economics education at George Mason University once I graduate from Hillsdale

Attending Drexel University
Majoring in computer science.

I hope in the fives years I am there I can get my masters and complete my eighteen months of co-op.The school itself is interesting. It use to be more of a commuter school but is now transitioning into a more dorm based campus. When i am at Drexel, I dislike it, but when I go visit my friends at other schools, I kind of miss Drexel.

 

[yuckymucky]

University of Nevada, Reno
Started in Computer Engineering and realized it wasn't for me after my junior year...so along came Materials Science and Engineering. Should finish sometime soon, the funny part is I still love to work on electronics projects and programming, I just didn't want to do it for a living.
