Status: offline 		So, where did everyone go to school at, and at what is your highest level of education?

Right now I'm a student at NYU studying computer science/information systems management. I also have an internship at a small office selling cocaine and nuclear arms to the elves in Santa Monica. It's not the most glamorous job, but I've got my foot in the door within the IT field. What's everyone else's background?

I also study religious history, sociology, chemistry (forensics), biology (animal development and behavior), music (both vocal and instrumental), physical education and youth education. I figure as long as I am paying for an Ivy League equivilant education I may as well make the most of it
I am going to a very tiny, private, liberal arts school, that is all that I will say

I currently work three jobs. I work at a Walgreen's, at the Humane Society and at the local Children's Services Department. I volunteer at the local youth detention center and with the local youth afterschool tutoring program.

I hold a certification in Chef and Restaurant Management and am certified to do menu planning and analyze nutrition and diets (not quite a nutritionist).

I have seven years of training in three styles of martial arts, have been swimming since I could walk, run (used to be #1 on my track team for versatility, I could do any track and field event), and choreograph in my spare time (I also sleep in my spare time ).

I'm sure I will think of more to add, but this kind of sums me up for now.

I received a BA in fine arts (concentration in oil painting) eons ago at a university nearby. Did a little (very little) post-grad work at another university, got married, fathered a son and really got an education (and I mean that in the very best way).

BS Finance.



I hope this doesn't mean you worked at Enron. BWAAHAHAHAHA!!!

Sorry. I couldn't leave it alone.

As for me, I've never left school. For some reason I have this need to continue abusing my head with knowledge and facts (not that it ever shows around here). Degrees in Electronics Engineering and Industrial Automation, and an assortment of other pieces of paper that say I know things about mechanics, computers, business, and stuff like that.

Anyone want to write a paper about the importance of the rule of law in socially and economically developing nations? It's due in approx. 12 hours and I haven't really started. Obviously I need some discipline.

Compare and contrast the Zimbardo and Milgrim studies, paying special attention to methodologial issues, ethical issues and APA standards. What changes could be made in the studies to make each of them more ethical and methodologically sound?
Remember that this must be thoughtful and well-supported and can take up no more then 2 typed, doubled spaced pages
