Well I am just finishing off the final touches on my Capstone Thesis and then I am finished school! I am proud to announce that I will be graduating Jan 26 (they only have 2 ceremony dates, jan and mar) Summa Cum Laude, with a 4.0 GPA, Bachelor of Computer Science Degree!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's been a long and interesting year of completing the remaining courses I needed to get my degree, but I can finally say I are edumacated!! I'd like to say thanks to all those who gave me encouragement along the way, and supported my decision to pursue this dream even though it meant leaving OUCH.
I am hoping to have an all out graduation party Jan. 26 in Davenport. Well I have to be here in Omaha for the Ceremony, but I can take lots of pics and bring them to Davenport, maybe even arrive in my cap and gown  . Soooooooo anyone who wasn't going to go to Davenport, or wasn't decided, I would like to cordially invite you to meet other clusterheads and join in the celebration of my graduation

It is up to YOU to educate yourself and then help your doctor plan your treatment. If you just sit down in front of your doctor and say "make me better" you are setting yourself up for a great deal of pain.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!
What a wonderful feeling it is, too...isn't it? I was never so relieved as when I finished!
4.0 too! That's phenomenal! I did that my freshman year at Penn State, and then maybe one other time...but otherwise, I left the straight A's behind in high school!
Really take some time to celebrate big!!!

Congratulations, Cat. 4.0...whatsamatta, you couldn't do better
Another year or so and I get my Bachelor's in Criminal Justice. I'm close to a 4.0... somewhere around a 2.3  ...but Im over half-way there.
