 I just realized...
That I'm over halfway done with getting my associates in IT Programming. I have a 3.11 GPA!

 Re: I just realized...
Sounds good mate, congratulations.

 Re: I just realized...
Java, HTML, and Intro to C++ is the heart of everything... Everything else is pretty much gen studies...

 Re: I just realized...
Don't waste your time with a history degree unless you intend to teach, be an archaeologist, or struggle to be employed for the rest of your life. I made that mistake although I love the subject matter and the courses I took. If at all possible, get a degree that translates into a definate job field. You won't regret it.

 Re: I just realized...
Comp degree > everything in terms of available jobs right out of school

I love history and want to teach BADLY. Idk would be nice to get a tenure but well see someday.

 Re: I just realized...
If you intend to teach, especially at the collegiate level then by all means go for history. I teach high school and coach so it worked out well but I ever get out of teaching/coaching I'll be somewhat limited. Get yourself a doctorate and you'll be set for life. Then you can come back to n00bfest as Dr.Reilly.
