    As if either one will actually do anything significant in the tournament anyway. Sorry UT fans, I root for them too, but let's be realistic.

    I graduated from Penn in December. Now there's a team going places my friends. :D

    Sam Houston State (a very long time ago). Like D0D and Jeff, I dropped out after 2 years. Journalism was my major. Got tired of hearing Dan Rather did this and Dan Rather did that. Dan Rather is a SHS grad in case anyone doesn't know;)

    Penn, class of 1999

    I think we have a great chance at upsetting Cal in the tournament...Cal's far from home and playing poorly...

    University of Chicago. History. Doomed to go to some graduate program somewhere to study something at some point in the future (I'm still trying to hammer out the particulars ;) ).

    I'm in my last semester at UT.

    Jeff and DoD, it's pretty funny, I've thought about quitting this semester as well. I think I'll make it though.

    Florida State University, undergrad meteorology. I've still got another two years here, then I'll look at grad school - likely FSU, OU, or Colorado State.

    BC... I was raised on Texas, but I've loved my undergrad experience, and haven't started law school yet. Besides, I haven't been to a UT basketball game in years... went to most of BC's home games this year.

    Same here. "How're you going to survive without a degree?! You need a degree!"

    ... I love you mom. :D

    ... note to all juvenile delinquents reading this board, life is much easier with a degree. I consider myself lucky.

    If you're close, don't quit. Go ahead and stick it out. The only reason I dropped out was to help the family out after my dad's heart attack. I was about 1.5 years from graduation. I then started reading about Y2K, the PC boom, etc., and thought to myself "I can see myself doing that stuff...". I happen to work in a field in which all you have to do is get your foot in the door and then start accumulating experience. Getting that foot in the door was where I lucked out. I had the technical knowledge, but getting a company to bite was about 65% luck and 100% determination. :)

    To be honest, I found the whole college thing boring. A bunch of busy work and silly (to me anyway) Honors courses I have yet to discover a use for in "the real world". Of course that doesn't mean they're useless. I'm sure there are a lot of people that couldn't find use for the things I do... uh... whatever they may be. :D

    I got one of those degrees by mail. Fully accredited and everything. Even helped me into a shared Paris program with Columbia U.

    Will get PhD from some snotty elitest school, if they don't catch on to my fake degree.

    The fake degree says I have an honors art history degree with a minor in studio art and fake minors in French and Spanish. Of course, it also says my name is Michael Guy Bakunin-Debord and that seems a little odd.
