Who are you!?!? If I don’t know you, I bet I know a lot of the same people you do. 🙂
I was at UVM from 1998 until this past may, and worked on a few University Players productions, and spent an inordinate amount of time at theatre parties. 🙂
Oh, and to answer the question in the OP:
University of Vermont, 1998-2004 on and off
Johnson State College (VT) 2004-2005 (hopefully)
Current major is English, though I’ve dabbled in physics, music, math, and latin/classics.

Louisiana State University; B.S., 1992 (7 year plan–with military interspersed)
–Major: Zoology
–minor: Psychology
I started off as a chemistry major, planning on going pre-med. I soon figured out that I was much more interested in biology/ecology than chemistry. Also, my stint as an Army medic led me to realize I really did not want to be a doctor, either.
University of North Carolina; Wilmington, M.S., 1996
–Major: Marine Biology (coral reef ecology/chemical defense interactions)

I went to a college that, most likely, no other Doper has even _heard_ of, let alone attended:
**[Cabrini College](http://www.cabrini.edu/default.aspx)** (Radnor, Pa.)
1993
B.A. in English/Communications
I started as a Psych major, and was a Theatre major for about a semester. Settled on English/Comm, though, with a concentration in Radio Broadcasting. There were just under 1000 students at the time, with something like 250 people in my graduating class.
I am currently working on an M.A. in English (concentration: Professional Writing & Editing) at **[George Mason University](http://www.gmu.edu/)**. Every time I am on campus I am struck by the difference in size/scale between GMU and Cabrini! 🙂
