Too bad it's my last year of school. Only since last year, and this year especially, girls are appearing there en masse (it's a computer science / communication and media school). In my time it was all guys (about 30% the type that you don't want to be associated with) and you could count the number of girls on one hand.

I know that. It's not about meeting. It's about having them around, which is nice.

She's also a BfME player, curiously enough.

Have you recommended T3A to her? :p

My major is the exact opposite. Roughly 90% are female. :p

She *is* registered at Revora, although not for T3A. She is also in to modding, but only for the Sims; what can you do? Haha. I'm trying to get her into level design (decorating / lighting) for Unreal. I reckon she's enjoy and be really good at that.

When I started at University, there were two girls on my course. One was part time, and was never seen, and must have dropped out after the first week. The other wasn't exactly very feminine, and dropped out after the first year. From then on, the ratio was quite simply 1:0. No women on the course...

Hmm, I'm sure there'll be a lot more women on business economy. Lucky me :p
It has been reported that some victims of rape, during the act, would retreat into a fantasy world from which they could not WAKE UP. In this catatonic state, the victim lived in a world just like their normal one, except they weren't being raped. The only way that they realized they needed to WAKE UP was a note they found in their fantasy world. It would tell them about their condition, and tell them to WAKE UP. Even then, it would often take months until they were ready to discard their fantasy world and PLEASE WAKE UP

Do Graphic Design at college chicks love Graphic Design a lot of hot chicks too.

Another tip, do a social study. I studied psychology for a while, 78% was female.

I'm probably screwed. My intended undergrad major is Materials Science (that's plastics and synthetic fabrics and whatnot). That and the college I'd most like to go to at this point has an overall 2:1 ratio of men to women.

Any liberal arts degree will get you an awesome ratio. Guys on my course are outnumbered about 4 to 1. It's a hard life. :p

That'd be if I were primarily interested in liberal arts. Unfortunately, my current aspiration for a university is the Colorado School of Mines, which is one of the best mining engineering schools in the nation.

One of my friends' fathers turned to his son after I said I wanted to go to CSM, and said, "If you want to meet girls, don't go to an engineering school.

He then turned to his daughter and said, "Girl, if you want to meet guys, go to an engineering school!"

It was pretty funny then, but it probably loses some in the retelling. :p

'tis what my girl does. But I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. Graphic design is an awful field to work in - mostly because there's no work, and the work there isn't, doesn't pay.

And you'll have the greatest ideas, but your clients who are headstrong but amateurs won't allow you to execute them :p
