  1. Master's in English, emphasis in rhetoric
  2. Master's in National Security and Strategic studies
  3. Master's in Airpower Application (a lot of military history, a lot of poli sci, a touch of international relations)

Potentially another Master's or a Ph.D. if I pick up enough French to enter the degree program in Paris.

Unsure about whether I want to head into Law or Business. Gonna be doing a lot of research this year, and any internships I can nail down will definitely help.

Graduated high school, tried doing full-time college and full-time work. Didn't work out so well. Dropped out of college.

Recently started taking a few classes at a time to get back into the swing of things. Attending classes towards a bachelor's degree in Computer Science. I'm also rather stupid. I don't know what BS or BA is.

Or do they earn an MA while studying, and get awarded both at the end?
