I'm partial to the MS in Recreation Administration. Just imagine the research needed on this puppy? Could you see the students fighting each other for field work? What about a 3-6mo internship in bora bora? Some time in the islands studying the busy season vs off season. You could work on some type of research project on the whys and whens of seasonal blocks. A complete project to include the history, background, control group, and conclusions. I'll take the project and the degree! Big Grin

If I had the time I'd take the MA in Thanatology. Why, you ask? Well think of the blank looks you'd get when you tell people what you majored in, followed by the dead silence (get it? "dead" silence!! Ha! I kill myself!! Wait, I did it again! Ha!). I imagine thanatologists are big hits at parties! Big Grin

*sigh*...I think ALEKS is making me lose my mind. Sad

Hmmm... After my Masters from WNMU, I might (seriously) have to look into the Parapsychology masters at Coventry. That's a pretty unique degree that could go places.... (Or at least get one a crappy tv show on late night cable... )
Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Wile E. Coyote, genius. I am not selling anything nor am I working my way through college, so let's get down to basics: you are a rabbit and I am going to eat you for supper. Now don't try to get away, I am more muscular, more cunning, faster and larger than you are, and I am a genius, while you could hardly pass the entrance examinations to kindergarten, so I'll give you the customary two minutes to say your prayers.

Bachelor of Science in PsychoRabbitology degree
Master of Education with a specialty in Rabbit-specific destructive munitions (or eLearning & Technology, I forget which)
Doctor of Philosophy in Wile E. Leadership with an area of specialty in Acme Mind Expansion - 2017 Hopefully
