That’s right, three colleges without ever getting a degree. I attended Carmel NY schools from 2nd to halfway through 11th grade when we moved away. When were you there? I would have been class of 1982. My brother is a graduate of SUNY Potsdam…1988. My sister graduated from SUNY New Paltz in 1985 or so. ---

> [@Large Marge](#): > > Did you know Blair Brown or Terri Felde or Mark Hall? At least, I think those are their names; it was all a long, long time ago. I think they went to his funeral. They were all about two years ahead of me. I think Blair went on to earn some fame. Kelly McGillis went to NHHS too, as did Ethan Wayne–John’s son–who acted in a few things. To continue our merry little hijack! 😉 I think I went to school with Terri’s younger brother- wasn’t his name Bob? Chris Karl would have been a frosh or soph when you were there, and Adam Silbar, Debbie Sampson, Liddy Hensley… 😃 ---

All of these schools are in Mississauga, except for Ryerson U, which is in Toronto. I went to school briefly before 1990, but that was in the Philippines and I don’t remember what the place was called. My Canadian schooling history begins in Grade 2. **Elementary** Fairview Public School (1990-1991) **Middle** Havenwood Public School (1991-1994) **High** G|enhaven Senior Public School (1994-1997) G|enforest Secondary School (1997-2002) **Post-secondary** University of Toronto - Mississauga (2002-2003) Ryerson University (2003-present) ---

I remember Chris Karl because he was friends with Jeannine Felde, who I grew up with, essentially. Do you still see him? How is he? Yup, Bob was the youngest of the Felde clan: and the biggest pain in the ass! I remember Debbie Sampson, too. She was fun! I wonder whatever happened to her? **Inkleberry,** your thread rocks! ---

Is anyone else even still reading this thread? 😉 Chris, after a stunning turn as JC in _JC Superstar_ his senior year, went on to be a nutritionist IIRC. His mom didn’t approve of “actor” as a job description! Debbie Sampson married Adam Silbar (I think she thought he would hit it big in Hollywierd). He did one teenage bikini movie (Hot Moves, I think it was) and a couple of guests shots (one on V that was terrible), and called it a career as far as I know. I don’t know what happened to anybody after about 1991! [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/what-high-schools-and-colleges-did-you-go-to/311409.md?page=8)
