Funny you should mention grad school, because Sev just brought it up. XD I plan on going to grad school, but for the reason of taking classes COMPLETELY in a different direction than my undergrad, because I think I have people that will pay for it.
Actually, considering my Christmas bonus, I could probably get them to fund me going on a random trip too, as long as I kept my science up. XD
And I realized the other thing that bothered me about the word "educated" vs. "learned". Educated is a more passive thing, a reaction. If there's anything that shouldn't be done passively, it's education, in my opinion. Which is why I hate hate hate lecture for anything other than say, history. History is one of those things you sit around and listen to stories for. Engineering should not be taught like a history class.
I could ramble on about this for days. God, hopefully I will have time for that silly module Prof JH wants me to write up for him.
