My degree is in communication media (very general description) but to get specific, my major was in web, DV post production and of course print media.- I went to CCS-college of art and design in Detroit- I worked at a studio for three months after I graduated from college last December, absolutely HATED working indoors during the beautiful part of the day so now I am part owner of the landscaping/snow removal business i worked at for 7 years from high school on up through college and freelance design on my time. I love it!. I make my own schedule and am hap hap happy!
I run a small agency/production facility, everything including print ads, websites, video post-production, campaign development, etc. All thanks to my Mac(s) and its/their influence on me. It's a great job, stroll in around 9:30 in the morning. I can make as much as I'm willing to work for.
digital prepress, slumlord, day-trader...i.e. scum.
Actually, I'm a shift supervisor in a digital imaging dept. for a commercial printer working second shift (getting paid while I do this...thankyouverymuch), I own a few rental properties, and mess with the stock market (thankyouVERYmuch AAPL). I spend way too much time online...help.
Bureaucratic drudge for an incredibly screwed up state agency. But I'm gathering up my resolve, and am gonna take a shot at earning my daily bread (and cable connection fees) by free-lance writing.
Yes, I was an English major.
i work after my school is over on tuesdays and thursdays at another schools computer (mac) lab repairing them. $6.50 hr. not bad. im the only one they know of in the city that can do this.
Junior at Rochester Institute of Technology studying New Media: Design and Imaging (basically like what Swizcore studied). I also manage a computer lab full of dual-head G4 workstations with pro DV decks and I don't get paid nearly enough for the kinds of questions I get asked

Anyway, degree in Linguistics and I do system administration (UNIX and Windows (when I'm forced to)) and general IT. In NYC, it's amazing I still have a job. And we're having our holiday party tomorrow night!
Grad school dropout, turned forensic scientist, turned IT guy in science department (UCLA Chemistry) currently doing sys administration and having a ball. Trying to gather some steam to get an OSX lab going here....
now a grad student in an 'other' field. got my first mac when i made my living publishing an entertainment paper. I was saving $200-$300 a month after owning it for 1 week. in those days you couldn't figure out out to get an ibm formatted in 1 week. i still enjoy amusing myself with illustrator and appleworks paint.
you know, even just typing papers for school, a mac is easier to organize and still gives better wysiwyg than those other computers.
