Ok, so I just got an early Christmas present. EC has finalized my paperwork finally, after many screw-ups the last 2 months, so my official conferral date for my Bachelor's of Health Sciences with a focus in Healthcare Management will be 12/17/10! So that puts me finishing 3 degrees in 22 months thanks to all you past and present members that helped me and kept me motivated when I wanted to give up.
I truly came here 2/09 just to find a way to finish my AS degree with no intentions of going any further, but now I have accomplished all this and I'm still not done. I'm in my 3rd class in grad school with a 3.98 GPA! Sometimes I'm in awe of how much I have done and I know I never would have done it without all of you! Thanks so much for all the support and friendship! This forum is one thing I'm very grateful and thankful for this holiday season!
I wish you all the very best holiday season! Thanks again!

Congrats again Marianne

. At your advanced age (kidding) you have done so much and shined the light on the path for so many to follow.

The over 40 and fab crowd never stops amazing me.

That's 3 of us..
Grats Marianne! I'm glad they were able to get everything sorted out for you for the December Conferral. I know I had to jump through hoops because one of my profs submitted my final grade a week past the deadline (both conferral and grade turnin deadlines, go figure..

) but my advisors came through for me.
Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Wile E. Coyote, genius. I am not selling anything nor am I working my way through college, so let's get down to basics: you are a rabbit and I am going to eat you for supper. Now don't try to get away, I am more muscular, more cunning, faster and larger than you are, and I am a genius, while you could hardly pass the entrance examinations to kindergarten, so I'll give you the customary two minutes to say your prayers.
Bachelor of Science in PsychoRabbitology degree
Master of Education with a specialty in Rabbit-specific destructive munitions (or eLearning & Technology, I forget which)
Doctor of Philosophy in Wile E. Leadership with an area of specialty in Acme Mind Expansion - 2017 Hopefully

Wonderful! We will all have to raise a glass and toast each other on 12/17! I'm grateful my new HS advisor worked hard to get my file done so I could finish now instead of waiting another month. Congrats to us all for all our hard work!
Nap: I just got notified this week that I'm getting a promotion at work so I plan to celebrate that and my degree at the same time!
Wanna: I'm loving grad school so much more than my undergrad work. I wish you luck and hope you have the same good grad school experience.
