ah :) I see :)
do they offer hands-on courses were you actually have to do some writing?
over here, newspaper publishers discourage young people from studying journalism. They recommend to study something like politics/history/literature/theatre and then do an internship with a local newspaper
Yeah, I have to take academic writing, university writing and composition in my first year at UVic (if I'm reading the website correctly, which is unlikely). They don't have a program called 'Journalism'.Quote:

Interesting to know what you are all doing, I didn't know we had so many persons doing Engineering here :).
Formally I'm studying nothing right now. I recieved my BFA in Fine Art (major in painting, minors in drawing and print, and honors work in art history) a bit over 10 years ago, along with post graduate work leading to licensure in Art Education. I currently teach art in a public school in a very urban setting. As the wonderful world of public education:sick: requires continual CEUs (continuing education units) and I refuse to ever take another education course if I can help it (They are the most inane and worthless classes, taught my retarded theorists who have never placed a foot inside the classroom... and most certainly not inside the classrooms of urban America:rage:), I will probably end up getting an MFA in studio art through an independent studies program (and probably end up taking the classes with an artist/college professor/acquaintence who has no more experience than myself. Formal education,of course, I believe is but a small part of my "studies". I have no problem with admitting that in many ways I continue to be a student... and an autodidact. After completing my BFA I spent endless hours (days, months, years) studying any number of subjects which interested me: literature, classical music, jazz, opera, art history, art theory, art criticism, history, book arts, etc... I suppose I am especially "book learned"... but then again, I guess that is a large part of why I am here. I am an unabashed bibliophile... if not a bibliomaniac.

Thanx in advance

Hi Ee, I'm studying English and Geography to become a teacher. I'm not taking an M.A. but the course is equivalent to M.A.. English is made up mainly of English Lit and English Linguistics (plus language and area studies courses).
I'm mainly a Linguist, but I like Lit, too
I have one more year of high school left, and as I attend classical high school, the emphasised fields of study for me are Latin and Greek, which I am somehow expected to continue to study at university (alongside literature, or history of art) - I am afraid that over the course of the years of my formal education I have been indoctrinated into classics so much that... once a classicist, I shall probably always remain one. :D
I'm a sophomore in high school. After that I will probably obtain some degree of other on journalism :D
hehe, I went to a classical high school, too. i had latin for 7 years and classical greek for 3 (could have done 2 more years of each, but I dropped them)
I'm studying Buddhism and chess mostly. Biographies, philosophy, prose or something, but I haven't been reading so much lately. Need to do more. I love having good study habits, you feel so much smarter.
Heat exchange mechanisms and patterns in concrete which has had various additives used during mixing and pouring.
I'm a marketing major, but I'm taking biology at the moment, and plotting ways to get someone else to pay for me to get a masters in biology or organic chemistry:D
Civil engineering.
I'm studying English/American Literature and Language...I'll hopefully pursue a degree in Philosophy after I finish studying Literature...I guess I'll do my graduate studies in English Drama and Poetry and study philosphy at the same time..not sure yet :D
