Dream school: Queens Commerce (alright, it's for a shallow reason: in grade 9 I saw a gigantic panoramic poster of Queens campus and I fell in love)
Program: Business + Visual Arts
Career: Administrative/Executive position in Marketing/Advertising
Current situation: UWO for minor in Visual Arts (at least, if my parents don't kill me), and vying for Ivey later on. Actually, while Queens has always been my dream school, UWO has been the place I've wanted to go the most. I can't imagine being happier, being able to focus on art AND business.

School: Probably some prestigious Japanese or European university known for excellance in historical studies, etc. Otherwise, it's Carleton University  Program: BA English Career: writer, politics (though not necessarily as a politician...), political theorist, op-ed writer ... less ambitious: librarian (though duh, for a large library!  ), and teacher Current Situation: Going to Carleton U for English, likely other fields such as Political Science. I'll see how it goes.. but I would sure like to reach for a Masters or (*gasp*) .. a Doctorate.

I'm on my way as well!
Dream Job: Something in information science, currently leaning on private librarian, maybe an archivist.
Current School: University of Toronto, Master's student in Information Studies (MISt, usually known as a MLIS or MIS at other schools)
Dream School: I'd love to go to McGill, but practically, this is a better choice. Maybe an exchange semester!
