It's Audience Participation time at the Trevor & Jason Show:
I finally came across comprehensive enough data regarding culinary-arts schools and their curriculums to suggest that as of the present point in the story, Jason is finishing up the second year of a four-year program. Which is good to know, as these things go; however, when I sit down and reconcile the math with other dates Muse has provided, it comes out looking like he's got two full years unaccounted for after high school. Now, this isn't exactly an issue, as such: I've had the sense all along that he tried something more "respectable", his heart just wasn't in it, and he decided to transfer what credits he could in the service of making a proper go at being a chef, at the urging of his parents to at least do whatever he's going to do well.
The thing it strikes me I don't have a sense of is what the "respectable" subject was. It wouldn't be pre-law (his parents already have one pup in law school) or pre-med (ditto), and I doubt it would have been the run-up to an MBA because he wouldn't have been bad at it (part of what he's studying now is an applied business education, after all). And while theater is damned tempting, it's not exactly a "I really want to be a chef but this will please my parents more" choice...
So, the Muse throws open the floor to the question: what was Jason's original major?
