I'm a second-year undergrad who just realized how dissatisfied he is with his math and csci majors. Back in high school I worked with the tech crew (mostly on lights) for one and a half years and had the time of my life; I still come back to help them with shows occasionally. Now I'm starting to weigh my options for switching to a future in tech theater as I'm realizing how little I love either of my majors compared to it. Unfortunately my college only offers one unified Theater Arts major for acting, directing, writing, and tech. I found that I could get this degree in my remaining two years, but I don't know how it would compare with the programs of schools people are recommending here, and I would have to completely change my college plans. I have a full ride scholarship and a lot of credits at my current school, so switching schools is a last-ditch option. Luckily I have next semester to think it over and discuss with advisors, but I stumbled across this site on Wikipedia and thought I would ask for advice here. What are my options at this point if I wanted to go into a career in lighting?
