Game design majors? Such a thing exists? I'm sure it can't be the sort I'm thinking...

Yup, we exist! Pretty much just at the AI of San Fran and the AI of Pittsburgh. (http://www.aip.aii.edu/programs_detail.asp?PID=9 for more info)
Pretty much, we do the soft fluffy side of games; not the programming...we do the level designs, character designs, the planning and such: the artsy fartsy stuff. Supposedly we're supposed to do stuff for digital media, but who knows what company might take interest on us...personally I'd love to work for Wizards or something (or Naughty Dog/Insomniacs if I'm lucky! LOVE THEM! SQUEEEE!!!)
It's a three year (all year round) program with very limited slots..I'm one of the 10 or 20 freshmen in it this year...all of 'em are guys but me o.0;; (please be one or two girls I don't know about so I have somebody to talk girlie crap with during class breaks!)
But yup, it do exist! ;D hopefully I can get some of my fellow gamer geeks to post here...since the school doesn't realy have a student forum. We have to have some place to gossip y'know

Hmmmm.... Interesting. Not /quite/ what I was considering, but hey, definitely better than what I was half-expecting.
*restrains an urge to pester artistic gamers*

Someone more slanted towards the rules-hacking side of games, of course. I'm a gamergeek, after all. I tinker with homebrew RPGs. As for the pestering, there's multiple things to pester you about. Are you sure you /want/ to be pestered?
