Joseph Carrabis’s Education

• NSICS

  MNLP , anthropology, linguistics, mathematics, neuroscience, physics, and many permutations of these

  still going to school, probably always will be. Only got a degree by accident because I wasn't looking. There's a character, Captain Casey from the "Dear Dad, Again" MASH TV episode. He comes to the 4077 as a surgeon and is a great one. It turns out he's never studied medicine. It further turns out he's an accomplished engineer, musician, ... half a dozen fields. When HawkEye asks why he doesn't get a medical degree Captain Casey -- who's actually a seargent -- answers, "I can do it all. I just never had the patience to get a degree." I seem to fall into that category. I've taught at the university level and many of my books are used as text books. I, myself, just don't have the patience to sit in a class (and have them lecture from a paper or article I published, something that's happened twice and gave me a chuckle when the professor paused and asked if I was related).
