What academic programs would be suitable for a TV/Film industry career?
Q. I want to work in the entertainment industry in the future, be it TV or in movies; video editing, production, studio crew even. What kinds of degree course could let me try all of these out? Or even if it's not film related, what kind of good course would be great for this kind of media stuff?
Asked by Tom - Sun Jul 26 12:35:03 2009 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. The film industry does not require you to even have a degree, so unless you need to be spoon fed a film education I'd not recommend a film degree if you want to go into the film industry unless you have researched it and feel you would benefit-- it'd be a giant waste of money otherwise. That said, I needed to be spoon fed because I needed the networking opportunities going to a film school would have given me because I had no idea how to get started by myself. :P There's no shame in going and getting the degree if you want it or feel you need it, but you can't expect it to give you a leg up in this case. They don't care if you have a degree, only about what you can do. It's one of very few industries based on damn near talent and skill… [cont.]

Asked by musicislife:) - Thu Dec 10 19:05:34 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. You need a 4-year college degree to apply to any law school, so that's not an option. You can study education at most colleges, and unless you're planning to someday teach education at the college level, getting an ivy league education to teach primary school is a huge waste of money. You'd get the same job you would with a degree from a low-ranked state university.

Asked by concettasplace - Fri Mar 7 23:00:34 2008 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. If she's out of high school, look at universities in your state. Some offer extensive programs to help young parents get through--all day daycare, on-campus apartment complexes (that get charged to bursars accounts per-semester and are eligible for financial aid, unlike off-campus apartments), and various other services. I don't know of any services that will provide you with this information, so just try calling admissions offices and seeing what they offer. Good luck!

Are there any programs that aren't academic or military related that would allow me to live in Japan?
Q. I'm really wanting to move to Japan in the next two to three years. I want to find some sort of program that would help allow me to live there. I don't want to get a degree to do so (personal reasons, don't judge) and I do not want to enlist in the military. Any ideas/suggestions?
Asked by Horse R - Fri Jul 18 00:27:34 2008 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments

A. If you don't have a degree it is really hard to come here and live because most residency visas require at least a bachelor's degree or some other kind of specialized training. I HAVE heard of an ocean lifegaurd exchange program based out of Australia, but I don't know any details about it. You might contact the Japanese Embassy or a local Japanese Consulate in your area. They might be able to point you in the right direction if there are any programs around that would be right for you.

FREE or CHEAP academic summer programs for high school students?
Q. Here is my dilemma: My parents make more than what is considered 'poverty' or 'financial aid worthy' but not enough to pay two, three, or four thousand dollars for a summer program. Are there any academic programs out there that are relatively cheap (preferably under $1,000) or cheap, located anywhere in the U.S. (I am in Ohio)? Thanks! I'm sorry if you misunderstood, but I am NOT 'financial aid worthy' as I put it. My parents make too much for me to get financial aid, but too little for me to be able to afford these programs. I have a 4.0 GPA with a full AP/honors schedule.

A. It's never too early to look for programs. I'd suggest any type of leadership enrichment programs. Colleges not only look for participation in special programs but also participation as leaders. As far as academic programs, choose something that will make you look like a well-rounded, intelligent person.

They helped me through the application process, arranged for transportation over here, put on a number of activities, and had an orientation where I met a ton of friends. It's a bit expensive (there is a program fee of about 4k - in addition to the costs of tuition/housing/ect) but it's well worth it. www.ifsa-butler.com Butler has a program for nearly anywhere you could want to study.

Academic rewards programs?
Q. Hello everyone. I am trying to think of some good ideas for academic rewards programs for my school. To clarify, this is when students recieve say a 3.8 GPA or better, they get something at the end of the quarter or semester for continually holding that GPA. What we use to do is if you recieved an A in a class for two semesters, you were excluded from taking semester finals. The board of directors don't want that anymore, so hence lies my problem. I need to come up with some ideas on how to rewards the efforts of these students. Anyone got any ideas? I don't care how dumb they are, please help!

A. Recognition is always good. A large showing of individuals who have made the honor roll or such. I wouldn't concern myself with that much, however. Excellence should be it's own reward. Oh, there's also the option of honor study hall. Those individuals who have made the honor roll (If this is a high school) don't have to go to the regular study hall room. They can take study hall in the student lounge, or wherever.
