Calling all Natural Resources/Environmental Studdies majors

Hey,

I just want to know where you go, what exactly is your major, and what has been your experience. I'm not looking for rankings or lists, just anecdotal experience. What do you like and dislike about where you are?

eta. Doh, sorry about typo in title.

Thanks for the links. I'm trying to decide where to apply. I'll probably only be able to afford to apply to four schools, so I want to get it right.

When you have a list of your top 10 possible schools, post it here and the CC experts will help you get it to a list of the top 4 to apply to.

I studied Natural Resource Policy and Management at Cornell. It was good for me, and Cornell's size and breadth across its schools allowed me to really focus studies in the way I wanted.

It's a relatively small department, so a lot of personal attention.
