I will take chemisty if I have to But I wanted to take Mycology, or at least the course(s) that lead TO mycology this fall, or a least next spring. I am having trouble finding a school.(in my area) , do any of you in the fraser valley area (Vancouver etc ) know of Colledge mycology courses??? Or do I need colledge courses to get INTO mycology(i.e. university course?) I was close to losing my place and thought, well intead of welfare, I might as well get an education. BC is the perfect place for mushrooms, and while their are mushroom intrest groups online(victoria and vancouver, mycological societies) , I cant seem to find any mycology courses on the colledge or university sites

"six munths ago i couldn't hardly even spel collidge stoodint & now i are one..."
well, first mebbe ya better larn ya ta spel colledge...
ummm... most undergraduate level curricula in the biology/life-sciences/pre-med sequence will have certain courses that have pre-requisites... and a mycology class might require you having completed the introductory biology & lab courses, & possibly botany or microbiology as well (or might even be folded into a botany or micro course)... many universities will have their major field requirements & course sequence recommendations in their catalogs (& this info is often online)...
~
"welfare" = public assistance? i have heard it said that people with a college education will earn more than a h.s. grad (& h.s. graduate will earn more than a h.s. dropout...)(ummm, you are a h.s. grad, or have a g.e.d. right?)
so for sure, take some classes at your local community college or university... & if you can convince those wonderful folks in the government to help fund your goal of higher education, hey, more power to ya...
~
but if it is strictly "how to grow fungi" that you wanna learn about, hey, there's some good books out there; heck, there may even be local mycological society folks who could give you some pointers, whaddya think?
ymmv...

Now ready on three lets all give a cheer for finacial aid YAY. Anyways, even if it's just to learn about growing I'd take the class (I plan to myself next year) because fungus is one damn interesting group of organisms.

UBC doesnt have a course? I would have thought for sure they would have! my sister goes there, i'll ask her if there are any. I know for sure there are soem horticulture courses, i dont see why they wouldnt have micology, being a huge research university and all.

Usually mycology is an area of specialization for people who already have Biology degrees. Non of the three major Universities in my state have it has an undergraduate class at least.

um.. I believe you mis-spelled "um.." with "ummmmmm..."? There is a difference between typo, and mis-spelling, no need to point that out.
