Bowlers vs. Education Level?
« on: April 07, 2005, 01:38:38 PM »
I was reading the recent post about "Why are all bowlers fat and stupid?", and I got to wondering ... are bowlers stupid? (Note - stupid and uneducated are different, but for the purpose of a smooth transistion to a new post here, let's assume they're the same.)
How many of the readers here have a college education, or plan to get a college education? If you are degreed, what was your major?
I think that you'll find that more often than not, bowlers are as educated as anyone else.
I'll start the list ... BS in Mech. Engineering, Ohio State; Masters in Engineering from Case Western Reserve University.
How about you?
Added - 4/8/05 - I forgot to add, I'm 5'11", 165#. Love all sports, esp. mountain biking.

BA Computer Science
BS Computer Information Systems
Working towards MBSA now
I teach at the college level and work in the higher education sector.

I'd like to add that there are times that I'm stupid

As far as fat, yeah, I've got a few extra pounds, but you're welcome to go backpacking through the Grand Canyon with me over New Year's Eve week anytime you'd like.  There are some great level 4 trails that get quite interesting when covered in snow and ice.

I plan on getting a phD in Biomedical engineering.  Right now I'm a tenth grader, but as of 9th grade I was tied first in my class.  I've dropped down this year due to INCREDIBLE slacking, so I'll try next year.  Haven't taken SAT's, but when I took them in middle school I got an 1150, so I figure to get around 1350 or 1400.

I have a B.S. from the University of Southern Mississippi and am currently going back to school for another B.S. and Masters in Nursing from the University of Mississippi. I'm in great shape, Bodybuilder, keep my bodyfat under 12% year round and under 7% in season and I don't even compete.
