I attended a small private college for my BA in math & philosophy. It was smaller than my highschool! ( 5 - 15 students per class, 250 in my graduating class)
For grad school I went to UNC, a HUGE place, but the math grad department had only 20 students, so I had a refuge, and a small office I shared with 3 girls who rarely showed up.
Now I teach at a small private college, 5 to 20 students per class. Life is funny that way

I attended community college straight out of high school, then transferred to a University of California and did drugs (it was the 70s--I was undiagnosed but already in need of something to help me get through a given day by the age of 12). No surprise, I flunked out. I returned to a Cal State University in my early thirties (I wrote a convincing letter of intent) and got the opposite: straight As.
When I was in my late teens/early twenties, illegal drugs sedated me against the massive crowds of people at college and the changing environment. But drugs as a coping tool turned out to be a really bad plan, and I had to quit.
Being in school later, especially grad school, gave me a great sense of order and direction, and fed my need to always have someone validate that I am doing something the right way. The campus I attended had over 30,000 students, so it was pretty hard walking around, but I figured out ways to get around the crowds and stayed in the library a LOT.
I ended up with a master's of fine arts in creative writing (see note above re letter of intent). |

I'm finishing up my second year of community college, and am transferring to UNC and jumping straight into my major which means I won't have to attend any of those 50+ people intro classes.
The campus is huge but my major is Interdisciplinary, which means I pick and choose specific courses from three different majors. Those three majors are Asian Studies (Japanese), Folklore, and Religion (Non-Western) all of which will be very small classes.
I hope to get a master's in Translation and Interpretation of Japanese (to pay the bills) from Monterey, and get a PhD. from Duke in their Asian Studies Institute focusing on the shamanic attributes of Shinto.
So hopefully I'll be in small classes the whole way through. |

I just got accepted to PLU, and I'm planning on getting a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and then go on to graduate school to become a psychiatrist.

I still do not have an official diploma although I have enough credit for almost two, but I take tons of classes in different departments.
I should get a BA Honours in sociology with minors in interdisciplinary studies in sexuality, biology and finance by the end of this school year.
Then, if everything goes as planned, I will get my B. of Health Sciences in Midwifery starting next year at the same time as I do a
Masters in sociology of medicine or something similar.
Then I'll be able to get a doctorate and perhaps another undergraduate or masters in biology, physics or organic chemistry.
I love to learn but I do most of my learning outside of school. I actually buy textbooks and class notes from courses I'm not taking. |
