Yep. It's all over but the walkin', folks.
In one week's time I will have officially graduated from college with my Bachelor's degree in Computer Information Systems. Man, am I glad it's over too! Anyway, praise be to me and all that crap...I worked really hard.
This also means that if Santa brings Tony a new microphone for Christmas we'll be able to do new episodes of the radio show soon. So yeah, give me the proverbial "shout out" and also to help keep the topic moving...what's the highest level of education you've received so far?

Congrats on that. I genuinely mean it. After high school, I sunk into a huge slump rather than pushing forward with my education, and it's come back to bite me in the ass. I've recently just started back up again, and I'm about to finish my first semester towards a certificate in Engineering, Drafting, and Design, and now, as an adult, I fully appreicate the hardwork and dedication that goes into further education, especially while trying to balance adult life into the mix, with a full time job, and a family.
Good luck with whatever this brings you.

Congrats man, I'm in my last official year of High School, after that I can either stay on at 6th form, or go to College or if I completely fail my GCSE's, find a job.

Congrats dude. Now that means that you won't be tied up with so much homework and what little bit I sign onto messenger, you will be able to answer my IM's more often! Joking.
Seriously, I know you've worked your butt off to get where you are and I'm sure you'll be very successful. Congrats!
Now that you'll be making the big bucks, you can buy me a microphone. And I'm not talking about one of those shitty 10 dollar Wal Mart mics. I'm talking about a mic that you can here on the moon. Which is where Little Peter Warrior dwells. I need to speak with him.

Congrats my friend. It's a lot of hard work, and I know it feels nice to finally complete it. Just remind yourself that when you are paying off student loans for 10 years.

I'm a CIS major, and I'd rather kill myself than go to my computer classes. I'm changing my major. Congrats to you sticking with it, though.

Congrats to you both, Bubba and Becca. I should be starting my first semester January 9th, Bryant & Stratton, Criminal Justice. Oh joy, I've already got the next 16 months covered and that's just the bottom of the barrel basics before I get to find my niche which I'm looking at forensics Investigator of some sort. There's a lot of ass bustin' in my future... But yeah, congratulations!

Thanks, man. Why don’t you just go and borrow the cash from Mach? I think his Elbow Drop Pontiac / Waffles 2 Go franchise is doing well enough. Congrats my friend. It's a lot of hard work, and I know it feels nice to finally complete it. Just remind yourself that when you are paying off student loans for 10 years. No doubt man, thanks! Florida has a program called “Bright Futures” which I’m enrolled in. Essentially, my GPA was enough to where the state paid for 75% of my tuition. I’ll have my student loans paid off within the year. I'm a CIS major, and I'd rather kill myself than go to my computer classes. I'm changing my major. Congrats to you sticking with it, though. Thanks! I actually really enjoy my major. I’ve always been super “systems oriented” and am always trying to figure out the best way to accomplish computer and data related problems. I guess I’m just weird that way! You should definitely stay with it though, man. Unless of course there is something that you would enjoy doing more that’s work related. You should always do what you love to do.

Congrats big guy. You've always been one of my favorite members on here. Hell... I did think you were older though, haha.

I'm going into my final semester as a Sophomore (2nd year) in college as a graphic/web design major! Almost a Junior! After college, I'll probably have about $20k in student loans, which isn't much. That'll be like $100 a month, or whatever I choose to pay. Easy. Congrats, and good luck!

Congrats man! I'm about to finish my first semester of college next week. I'm also majoring in Computer Information Systems. It's been pretty difficult so far, but just knowing that I'm this close, and have passed all my classes so far, and only have 1 final left is enough to keep me going. I know it's for the best, no matter how badly I just want to quit.
