I have a B.A. in biochemistry, minor in biology and a Master's in Biology (molecular focus). Couldn't find work upon graduating, so I took up programming. Got a couple of websites now, and a LOT of time to read!

I just graduated with a major in politics (yes, everywhere but Brandeis it's called political science, which in itself makes party discussion a tad annoying). I've been spending the summer trying to figure out what to do with it. I took a lot of journalism classes (though I didn't major or minor in it) and did enough internships and freelancing that I'm trying to find more permanent work in that field. But we'll see if I'm lucky. I think I would prefer to find work and stick with it, because going back to school for a Master's would A.) bankrupt me and B.) drive me insane.
