What college do you attend, have you attended, or plan to attend?


I attend University of North Carolina at Wilmington. As a freshman I attended Radford University in Virginia. Both are awesome schools, though a little on the party side, which is just not for me. Excellent professors and students though.

I attended/attend Millersville University in Millersville, Pa.

University of Arizona.

Great education.
Next to Mexico
Sunshine
Great college sports

University of Central Oklahoma

Beaver College.

Also, Folsom State University for 7 1/2 yrs.

Beaver College.

Didn't they rename that, so that people wouldn't snicker whenever they said it?

I'm not an active alumnus so I have no idea.

St. Chad's College, University of Durham

Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand.

I grew up in Folsom. My house was a short walk to the river, on the other side you could see the prison.

I attended Sacramento State (CSU Sac) for two years but only paid for one. After a lot of crap I finally returned to college, getting an AA in music at Chabot College in Hayward then transfering to UC Santa Cruz getting a BA in Film & Digital Media with concentrations in production and screenwritting and (in a month) getting a graduate certificate in playwrighting. Not a marketable skill in the bunch...

Grand Valley State University in Allendale, Michigan for 2 years.
Ferris State University in Big Rapids, Michigan for 1 year.

Currently a first-year Nanotech student at Curtin University of Technology in Australia. :)

Currently I'm at the University of New England, but I plan on transferring to another university at the start of next year.

University of Salford - good department (the school i'm a part of is, anyway), good social side of things, right next to Manchester :)

University of Ghent

University of Art and Design, Helsinki.
A great school, IMO. Good facilities and equipment. The group sizes are small and the staff and students get along well. No tuition fees, either, so we get a lot of foreign students. Keeps my English in shape. ;)

hopefully i'll be off to De Montfort in Leicester, Uni of West England in Bristol, Buckinghamshire Chilterns Uni College or Homerton College in Cambridge in September

What Simon De Monfort? hes an Arse!

I've got a friend at De Montfort, she really likes it there. I also know a couple of people at Cambridge, but they're not at that college, so that doesn't really matter lol. It's really nice down there though, if the Jesus College campus is anything to go off.

University of Connecticut, 1991-1995.

A nice campus in the middle of rural Connecticut, with about 20,000 of my closest friends. :)

Big enough to offer just about every major and activity under the sun, but (since it isn't in a city), with a cohesive identity and an ability to live in small circles if one wanted to.

I'm doing English lit. I've not quite figured out why yet :rolleyes: What about you? Do you live on campus?

I'm doing Popular Music and Recording. Useful :S No I don't live on campus, I live at home :( I have a habit of frequenting the pint pot though :cool:

I think I know a couple of people doing that course, unless they're doing some other music course lol. I've not been to the Pint Pot in ages, we were going to go down on wednesday to see the bands but...erm...didn't, basically :rolleyes: I just go to Lowrys, even though it's shit and expensive. It's within staggering distance of home :p

:eek: You should have gone on wednesday, my band were playing! :p

:eek: Oh well, i'm sure there'll be other band nights. Won't there? Actually, if there are, how do you get on them? Or do you have to be doing one of the music courses?

Do you know a guy called Keith then? Think his last name's Lamburger or something :confused:

That particular band night was a music course one, they have others though, don't think you have to be on a music course for those.

How weird is that? lol - Only reason I ask is because I live with some of the guys he lived with last year, I don't really know him though. I'll have to keep an ear out for the other nights, we want to get gigging again.

:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:
What the Drummer or Simon De Montfort sucking? :p

What the Drummer or Simon De Montfort sucking? :plol, i meant the drummer thing

lol, i meant the drummer thing
Well De Montfort does suck-Bloody f00! ill disapear now..............(Woosh)

Whoa. Small world, ain't it. :)

I go to McMaster Univeristy in Hamilton, Ontario.

I'll probably end up at the University of Nebraska in Lincoln, or the University of Nebraska in Kearney....I won't be going to any fancy college....

I go to Colorado College in Colorado Springs....I'm going to be a Junior there....love it-nice, small, private, and liberal school

Currently, I attend the University of Saskatchewan while majoring in Political Studies. Should I be able to, I'd like to attend McGill University for my Grad studies.

Used to go to the University of Luton. Shit Uni, good course (made 15th best in the country...so they closed it :headbang: dumbarses!).

hopefully i'll be off to De Montfort in Leicester, Uni of West England in Bristol, Buckinghamshire Chilterns Uni College or Homerton College in Cambridge in September

So, you gave up on Plymouth then?

yeah, it's a nice campus if you like cows.

nah, I'm kidding. I assume you were at the Storrs campus? Nothing better than watching the huskies kill everyone else.

I'm at Boston University by the way

can't do children's nursing there so i had to give up on it

Sounds like a good enough reason. Probably for the best, you'd get bored down here. Good luck anyway! ;)

I want to go to the massachusetts institute of technology, located across the river from Boston. It's not a reach school, it's my first choice. Really top of the line, less than 15% percent acceptance rate and average SAT of 1470 (had to write a paper for English abour which colleges I was looking at).

If I don't get in there, I'm looking at Stanford as a safety school.

Sheridan College (Oakvile, Ontario, Canada) 96/97 - Classic Animation

I cut out out of it after my first year after realising I had no deisre to be an animator (boring, very very boring)

From there I transferred to OCAD (Ontario College of Art & Design, Toronto, Canada) 97 to '01 - Fine Arts - They wouldn't let me do a double major in Sculpture/Installation and Media Arts, so I made my own major combining Sculpture/Installation and Sound Production with a nice amount Drawing and Painting to keep me grounded in the backbone of visual arts ("Draw, draw, draw, and draw some more." - advice from Lucien Freud dispensed to myself and some classmates while getting soused @ the unofficial college pub)

Its a sweet place, though its enrollment grew by 100% between my first year and last year there, making things a little tight. It now boasts the ugliest addition ever made to any college in the world, ever. I call it the Death Sandwich, because it looks like a huge Ice Cream Sandwich hovering deathstar like above the rest of the college.

behold the Death Sandwich (http://www.ocad.ca)

I could attend pretty much any university in the nation with my grade average (~98%). My top five are as follows, in no particular order...

Pittsburgh
Notre Dame
Southern California
Michigan
Stanford

I'll even think about doing an overseas exchange program, possibly in my Sophomore year.

I want to go to Washington University in St Louis and Le Cordon Bleu in Paris, France.

DePauw University in Greencastle, Indiana.
I'll be starting as a freshman this fall.

I've attended VCU (Virginia Commonwealth University) and RTS (Reformed Theological Seminary)... Grad and Post Grad Masters of Science, Electronics Engineering at the former.... and a Bachelors in Theology at the later.

UC Berkeley

nah, I'm kidding. I assume you were at the Storrs campus? Nothing better than watching the huskies kill everyone else.

I'm at Boston University by the way

Yep, Storrs. And I'll have you know, we now have the cows relatively under control. :D

Seriously, since I've left, I cannot BELIEVE how much Storrs has changed for the better. I keep telling myself that once I hit the lotto, I'm going back for a Doctorate...

PS- 4 seasons and I NEVER won the basketball tix lottery... :(

I've attended VCU (Virginia Commonwealth University)

Hey cool! My best friend went there. Was an Art Major. :)

TU/e in (obviously) Eindhoven

Yep, Storrs. And I'll have you know, we now have the cows relatively under control. :D

right...the burning cars and couches probably scare them away ;)

it really is a great campus though. I really liked it up there the times that I visited, but its a bit to...isolated for me

and my friend won tickets. didn't bring me tho. bitch.

I am planing to attend Georgetown for Pro Basketball I already got a letter from the People there so I can attend

Georgetown College is in Washinton DC

I want to go to Boston College, Cornell, Univ. *of* San Diego (not to be confused with UC San Diego).

And my dad went to Georgetown, actually.

I go to New Jersey Insitute of Technology in Newark, New Jersey

Newark Cool I have been in Newark Airport 5 times before

right...the burning cars and couches probably scare them away ;)

UConn now also has the fire problem relatively under control... :D
(but c'mon. Where else can one have an $18,000 snowball fight with 5,000 of your closest dorm-mates?)

Yeah, it's a bit remote, but with a car it's okay.

haha...yeah, now that its summer break. Wait till it gets cold. CT has its share of cold winter nights. Nothing like lots of alcohol and a burning car to stay warm.

and how does a $40,000 snowball fight in Boston sound? (I really hope your first thought was "Overpriced", because that is mine)

this is from the website of an online club for BU students...its the "My school has a lazy river and yours doesn't" club (yes, my school actually did install a lazy river for hydrotherapy purposes)

"I don't know about you, but when I wrote my check for tuition this year, I thought, damn, I am so glad my tuition dollars are being put to good use. I mean, gee...how many other schools put your physical health on the top of their priority list? I know that this year, I'm totally supporting the increase in tuition because, damnit, I worked hard through high school and I earned this...a lazy river! And when you see me on Comm Ave, wearing my disgustingly expensive bikini, beach towel and toting my 6 foot long, forest green inflatable alligator raft, remember what a first rate institution you go to, hold your head high and tell the world, 'Grade deflation was worth it...my school has a lazy river, bitch!' "

Why didn't I just go to UCONN or Central? or any normal school for that matter? (Just kidding, I really do like BU...if only it wern't so damn expensive)

Hey cool! My best friend went there. Was an Art Major. :)

Yeah, it's a good school. Has a pretty good arts program. Especially for a state college. My wife did her graduate studies there, and post-grad at Virginia Tech... It also has a good medical college (MCV, Medical College of Virginia) as part of its campus spread about the Virginia capital.

Also JMU and UVA are good schools here.
