Is your roommate a math genius? I don't know much about the career off the top of my head, but most actuaries that I know or know of are quite gifted in the quantitative department. If you've ever seen "Along Came Polly," Ben Stiller's character is an actuary. They help insurance companies determine risk, and I've also heard of actuaries working with pension funds.

Ben Stiller is an underwriter in "Along Came Polly".

Jack Nichlaus is an actuary in "About Schmidt".

My roommate thinks he is a math genius and the actuary program is at Lenior Ryan which is in Hickory NC. Not exactly a tier one school. I have just heard that the certification is almost impossible to obtain and that is the first thing an employee looks for, like a lawyer passing the bar, or accountant passing the cpa exam.
