Tell us about your schools

[Daniel]

I'm curious.

Please see my "Saving Seals" (sic) post about my Alma Mater.

I also went to UF for a year and HCC for two years.

I graduated from MS in NY and HS in FL.

If you went to HS, dropped out at 16, went to school learn a trade like my father, anything... I'd like to hear about it.

I would link my other thread to this one but I have to run.

College at Purdue. A little grad school at The New School in NYC (this was for fun in my 30s and I didn’t finish because a new job had me mostly out of the country)

@jon-nyc So we that in common too. But in reverse order. Lol.

Didn't know you went to school in Florida.

What did you study for fun at The New School, Jon?

My son is getting a second master's degree. I don't think it's strictly necessary for his job, but it's in computer science, so I am also not sure it's strictly fun, either. Maybe it is for him. lol

As for me, BS from Murray State, MS from Ole Miss, MFA from Rutgers Camden, PhD from U Exeter.

The last two were fun, but the MFA also made the academic career possible. The PhD was good for the academic career and it's currently getting me the opportunity to write academic books for not very much money and to do teaching gigs that are fun and reasonably well-paid.
