For me, yes. As old as I am, yes. I wish I had the time and money.

I want to go back to school for a degree in Illustration and Cartooning, I have an Animation degree and haven't done anything with it.

I want to go into comics. Signing up for the Art Instruction Schools art program is the next best thing. What about you?

I missed out on stuff in college, and would love another try in a different field. But it'll never happen.

Yeah I do. I've not gone these past two days *curses this sickness* So I kind of miss it. Or do I? *thinks*

I will miss it terribly when I finish, I'm convinced of that. I started out minoring in Philosophy, but that turned into a major pretty quickly. Also added a semester. Then I picked up another minor, Psychology. Added a bit more time there, too. Currently I'm majoring in English and Philosophy (with Grad school right around the corner) and minoring in Psychology. So, I've got some time left before I finish, but I know I'll miss it.

I wish I could go back right now-I've been out of school a little over ten years. I tried getting a job in my field but I haven't gotten one as of yet. Sometimes I had to miss out of certain job offers posted through the alumni dept. at my old art college. Oh well.

I now see the value in interning, and I would encourage anyone here who's currnetly a student to take up internships.

I want to point out if you have problems with financial aid going back to school or trying to get a degree online will be problematic.

There was a local art school I went to to take up art courses but it's not the same as going to art colege-it's like taking art classes outside of school and you pay to sign up for the classes.

They didn't really offer me anything to help with comic except ONE comic writng/creativity class.

After December, I'll be one semester away from an MA in English. I just finished a BA in Writing this past spring. This was an attempt to come back to school after being out of college for close to nine years, having left because I ran out of money.

Fortunately enough, I've been very fortunate with both inexpensive college nearby (no room and board fees) and financial aid (a grad assistantship), which has allowed me to resume, after re-evaluating what I wanted to do with my life. I'm now on my way, hopefully to getting a teaching job, which is my main goal. Otherwise, I have bandied about with my wife whether I should try for a doctorate. (It's very tempting)

If all things go well, we'll both have our Masters degrees next May. (Mine: MA in English. Hers: MS in Global Engineering Design)

I'll tell you all right now, I'll be one sad lad the day I leave the safety of my overpriced community college.

I want ot go back to get more art-related training. I can tell you right now you can't get an online degree if you have issues with financial aid, if if you are an alumni like me and want to go back to the school you graduated from, you have to start the application process all over again.

College life is a tough experience but I enjoy it because there`s a lot of memories I can`t forget.
