EDIT: BTW thats what's good about my college, they actually care about all styles whereas most every other music program is just straight jazz OR classical.
Berklee is the most contemporary-*** college out there! Classical = 10000x better! And most schools aren't just Jazz OR Classical, it's just way too **** hard for most people to
excel at multiple genres. Juilliard offers Jazz as do most other conservatories out there. If you can do it, by all means, go for it. It's not like you really need a degree for performance anyway, just training.

Anyway, while we're talking about college, I'm finally finding some people to play against here in Kingsville and I showed my room mate SWF and he's actually picking up on stuff pretty quickly. This is looking promising. Downside is, he wants to play Diddy >_<
