Bonnie,

Two summers ago architecture was going to be her career, she changed her mind after doing a 4 week short course on the Mizzou campus during the Missouri Scholars Academy. She still has a ways to go to settle on what she really wants to study at college.

>I tried early on to get my 3 sons interested in programming. No such luck. They *use* computers (and not just for games <g>), but they never got bit by the programming bug. My youngest son, while not interested in engineering per se, is at least in a somewhat related field ... he's studying to be an architect and his real interest is in space architecture. He's finishing up his senior year now, but probably also needs to go on to get a Masters before he has any hope of actually getting a job.
