I'm a technician for a Film & TV program at a public school. We have more than 700 undergraduate majors and 100 MFA students with a focus on production. (We also offer an MA degree that has many students currently enrolled in and have a couple hundred writers and actors in the MFA program as well - but I don't work with many of them on a regular basis as I do the former mentioned.)

Please feel free to ask any questions you may have about working in an academic environment. The department I work for is different than med school, but still very demanding.
