April's level of education?

*neatoman* · 10-20-2021, 02:24 AM

We knew she was Baxter's lab assistant and that her background was in programming, but what did she study and what was her degree? Was it like a Masters in HCI or something?

I love when people assume that the writers ever put five seconds worth of thought into stuff like this. It's grand.

I mean, it's not that they shouldn't have, but you just know they didn't.

For all intents and purposes, let's just assume that April got her degree in "Whatever The Plot Demands", directly from the Professor of Logic at the University of Science.

...Because that's what Norm MacDonald would want.

Actually, he wouldn't give a sh*t.

But still. That was a good bit, the whole "Professor of Logic" bit. "Logic? What's that?" "Well... D'you have a doghouse?" "No." "Ah, so you must be one'a them gays!"

Jesus, I miss that guy. He was a gem.

In City at war she finds a new job as a programmer, if I remember well. Not sure her academic background has ever been revealed. To these days I still don't know what Casey's occupation is.

So apparently she's gonna be a journalist now because she just up and decided to give it a go? I dunno, I go into a fugue state while I read new issues now.

I would have to double check...but I thought she had some sort of biology degree? Its been a few months since I read the first few hardbacks. Casey's degree when he was going was Physical Science or sports and health but he dropped out.

Check the Palladium RPG book. It was never canon but could have been informed by E&L at the time.

So a Masters. I don't see in what field but I assume robotics or programming language?
