What's your Alma Mater?
« on: October 01, 2007, 07:42:41 PM »
I thought since several members (Rico and Markinro) have mentioned their fondness for certain college football teams...I would ask everyone...Where did you go to school? I know not everyone goes to college, and that's OK. If you didn't go, tell us where you went to high school.  :)

I went to Texas State University—got a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree. My husband proposed to me on the steps of my dorm with all the girls on my floor hanging out the windows watching.  :D

Good memories were made at my alma mater.

Ripley: Ash. Any suggestions from you or Mother?
Ash: No, we're still collating.
Ripley: [Laughing in disbelief] You're what? You're still collating? I find that hard to believe.

Cool idea Jen.  I'm not really a big football fan, but since I went to MSU and so did my friend on the forums here markinro I have to support my team!  Especially since I met my wife Lynn there and our oldest son is going there now too.   I spent a lot of time walking those paths between classes.  Beautiful campus!  :msu

Concordia University, Montreal, Quebec. Go Stingers! Bachelor of Computer Science, Information Systems concentration.

Really fun school, right in the heart of downtown Montreal. I spent most of my time at the downtown campus, however there is another campus a bit west of downtown where more of the pure sciences and fine arts hung out. That campus had a lot of older buildings and green space. Also where the football field was. The fun thing about being right downtown was I could (and frequestly did!) hit the bar on my long breaks.

Also being a Quebec resident and going to school in Quebec made my 4 year bachelor's degree cost about 1000-1500 dollars/semester. No student loans here!

Never having gone to school in the US, can someone explain to me the difference between state schools and "non state" schools?

It's defined on how it's funded. So State schools can't get state funding while private schools can not. It's also on how they file as either for profit or non-profit.

That is kina the short version of it :)

Ash: No, we're still collating.

Also State Schools normally have lower fees, since they are somewhat funded by the state.
