PhilCast 15: College Podcast

I'm currently in community college, but I'd like to get a 4-year degree from a college that has the degree I'm currently seeking.  In this episode, I go through each of the colleges and universities that offer the degree.  I'll reveal my top 5 list of colleges I am likely to transfer to and honorable mentions.  In a perfect world, I graduate and then transfer, but it isn't that easy.  Finally, I present to you a episode that's a over a month in the making.  Light swearing.
