    Found out what I made in my 2 classes - A and A-. I was really surprised to get an A- in Business Policy as I thought for sure I would get a B, so I was pretty happy about that. But I am even happier that I am finally THROUGH with this program and that this Saturday I will be receiving my MBA. This is something that I started back in 2000 and took my first 2 classes in the Spring Semester of 2001. I wanted to give up so many times in the beginning due to burnout and laziness, but somehow I battled through it and now it is finally over!!

    So, if you are graduating this semester, whether it is with an undergrad degree or a grad degree, sound off in this thread.

    Does handing out Diplomas on stage count?:D

    I doubt I will be going after another degree anytime soon, but you never know.

    THIS semester? Awww, man... I graduated LAST semester... :( I can't sound off on this one... [​IMG]
    Class of '04 here.
    WHICH part, and was HE happy?


    EDIT: Maybe Manny wants to go work for Batman Jones in his theater with a graduation role? I don't know if "the graduate" was ever a play... :confused:

    I'm not handing them out, but I get to show up in full regalia and "process" and shake hands with everybody. I'm supposed to represent the culmination of academic success or a role model or something. :rolleyes:

    If I could, I would go after another degree. It was cool being one of the students... and there are lots of things I'd like to study.

    Well how about that? I ****ed up the title! I guess I am lucky I am getting that degree after all! I am glad that I could provide some laughter to some of you in your otherwise humorless lives.

    And we know you decided to spell the word incorrectly so you wouldn't make those of us who aren't as smart and don't have graduate degrees feel bad..

    Let me tell you, graduate degrees are highly overrated.
