SysAdmin

[CyberGlyph]

I keep seeing posts about school, so I figure I would ask...
Anyone here gone to school to become a Systems Administrator? I havnt been able to get much info about pay and oportunity at the college im enrolled in. So if anyone could tell me how long it took to get the degrees, certs, ect..

Also, is it worth it to get an Associates SCIS w/ a programming emphasis in like C++?!?
