So here I am a year later going back to school for my assoc. degree in computer sciences (I'm majoring in, what else, networking/security ) Upon taking a tour of the school I'm going to apply to (NHTI), I discovered that the networking dept. has just over half a MILLION dollars in routers and other assorted networking equipment donated to them by Cisco (There is a room that is all racks w/routers!!). It's one of only 5 schools in the country that have that facility. And it's a 25 minute drive from where I live. Pretty cool...

Just felt like sharing that
If you have the patience, I suggest you go through and get a 4 year degree. I have had particular trouble finding a job with just associate degrees.
