Jimmy eyed Elliot. Science and 'pathology' wasn't exactly the most appealing thing to him. But he wasn't the one looking to get a degree and job in that area so he refrained from making any obscene comments. "I guess that's interesting. As long as you don't catch any of the diseases you want to study, of course."
At the mention of public health, Jimmy perked up a little. That was more up his alley, depending on what Elliot wanted to do in the field. "Public health could be interesting, if you have the right connections." Jimmy raised his eyebrows and smirked. "I wouldn't mind being the next mayor but I don't think a 21 year old college kid would make the best mayor at the moment. Either I want to run one of the businesses on the island or run the town, though I wouldn't knock running a big company on the mainland either. Fat chance that'll happen though."
