What Was Your College Major? What Did Your Career Turn Out to Be?

Major was photography.
Dropped out after 2 years when the silver market went crazy in the early 1980s. All my film, and paper prices skyrocketed upward. I was also becoming better and better at programming computers.
Started my own custom software company in 1983 at age 21. Also learned how to repair Apple and IBM PCs. By 1985 I was de-soldering the ram chips on a 4 layer Mac 128 motherboard and installing higher capacity chips to upgrade it to 512k. Never looked back. by late 90s I was making my own power supllies and even made a water cooled, digital camera for astronomy.
My dad was not exactly excited about me wanting to be a photographer. He knew the prospects for long term, stable employment were not great for such a career.
He (and the supplies price increases) gently pushed me out of a degree in photography and into computer science and electronics. A day does not go by without me me being thankful for that.

At one point, we had a guy hired to oversee Joint Commission concerns for nine hospitals, particularly building, physical plant and infection control problems.
One of the nurses at our place caught the guy passing off some of her forms and policies as some of his creations. After she started cobfabbing with her fellow witches and wizards, they determined the guy had been stealing ideas from everybody, changing up letterheads and then passing them off as his own.
Nice work, if you can get it...

Healthcare oversight and regulation has been one of the top money wasting, scam-producing boondoggles of all time.

Mathematics/Physics - Joint Honours they called it. Ended up doing electrical engineering, sort of.

So far my hypothesis has been a bit rejected in terms of degree, but the overall idea seems to be holding up.

Dance with a minor in piano. Went to an all girls arts school. Used a little after graduating but not very much. Lol
(We used to drink lemon juice as we were told it would make us more flexible. I will probably have no bones left when I am older. Lol)

Do you have any videos you would like to share? I am academically interested in the art of dance.
Education is extremely important.

For propriety’s sake, might I suggest you add a subject in front of that verb? This place is full of reprobates.

Had a doc tell me one time that he had put so many dollar bills in g-strings, that he probably funded at least one junior college degree...I suppose he was also invested in academics and dance.

BS in biomedical communications (medical illustration and photography), BS in veterinary medicine, DVM ( doctor of veterinary medicine, and yes, my formal title is Dr. Jodi
). I worked as a medical illustrator at a medical school, I worked as an equine vet, but after kids I was a stay at home parent who did artwork on the side. I now spend at least part of each day in my studio. -

I don’t think I do. Lol. I think if I saw it, it would be pretty embarrassing as I don’t think I was that good. At the time, I thought so, but for real, probably not.
