My school has a slightly different system of majors and programs of emphasis--you're given considerable freedom to shape your own major as long as it's reasonable and approved of by the department heads. You can call it what you want, too--also within reason. I started out as a Communication majors with a minor in IT, but that got boring for me. I wanted more computers. So I cut back a bit on the fluffy Communication/Social Psychology stuff and picked up about...oh...fifteen credits more of Comp Sci courses. Throw a REALLY hefty chunk of IT in there and a bit of business/management, and voila, you have my major.

Thing is, I don't know what to call it. I'm sure as hell not a Communication/IT major, because I cut back on the fluffy crap and grabbed some comp sci. But I'm not straight IT, either. Oh, and I've been employed for the last three years doing various computer lab assistant/helpdesk stuff, and most recently, PC technician work with my department. Over the next four months, till school begins again in fall, I will be a full-time technician (which basically means "bitch they give eleven bucks an hour to for anything from running cable to swapping out RAM to doing our OS X rollout to figuring out why the new science center's WLAN is down").

So what do I call it? Help me. :)

Oh, and also, read my very stupid webcomic:

It has IT and CS majors in it!

This is the first time I've used this Journal feature. Maybe someone will read it. Or reply to it. Or write really nasty comments on it. Anyway. I'm an aspiring network/server/Linux girl on the East Coast, graduating soon and looking for a job in Manhattan or central New Jersey. I also draw a stupid webcomic. Love me.
