9. I was looking at a PhD in applied math/computer science

The no longer even offer a bachelor's degree in mathematics, and wiped out most of their PhD programs. They still have an engineering/computer science degree - but I don't have the engineering background.

I have a Bachelor's degree in math and physics, a Master's degree in applied math, and a JD. I have enough religion courses to have earned a minor in religion . . . if they had offered one.

I think I'll start in the fall with an art class (likely B&W film photography), and maybe a computer science course. I'm certified to teach computer science (and math and physics) as a secondary teacher, but my background is primarily in languages - and languages no one uses any longer. It's hard to tell how many courses they would let me jump over.
