Welcome to the General Discussion area where just about anything goes! This area is designed to discuss all matters and does not necessarily have to be Transformers related. Please keep topics relevant.

Graduates of '07! Unite!

Postby Neko » Wed May 23, 2007 9:05 pm

Summer is upon once again. Temperatures rise, pools are cleaned are prepared for endless days of use, parents groan in jealousy at their children's vacation. Finals are finishing up and we all know what that means:

GRADUATION!

Schools ending and many people are graduating High School and College! A mile stone in ours lives I feel should be celebrated! Everyone makes a big hoo ha about it at home, so why not here? Come and congradulate our fellow Seibertronians in making it this far!

If you're graduating this year Say hello and relish in your accomplishments!


This Friday will be my own Grad ceremony and next fall I'll attend Beville State community college!


Class of '07! Roll call!

Congrats!! My oldest daughter graduated 8th grade today..
Not a sheeple.
Think for yourself, don't let the magic TV box and social media do the thinking for you.
Question EVERYTHING!!
Just because you have a youtube review channel doesn't make you special.
No, I am not friendly online or in real life.
I look forward to attending a Botcon only to settle matters with idiots in person.

I'll be graduating in September with my Associates in the field of Multimedia. Then it's back to school for me, for another associates and a bachelors.

But before that, I still have a final exam tomorrow, a final project due Friday, and another final project a week or so from now due.

Then it's 3-4 months of ground pounding on my capstone project.

So, to all those graduating in the next couple months.

Congratulations, but don't let that fancy degree make your egos get all hot-air-balloony, theres still a crap-load of work you'll be going through.

And for the high-school graduates preparing for college. Welcome to the real world. :twisted:

:lol: Hardly.

Anyway, graduated with my second B.A. on the twelfth. GPA of 3.922.

I don't think I've ever actually mentioned it, so I'll say, the bigger news is that my wife got accepted to Grad School at CU Boulder. We're moving to Colorado in August.

Shhhh, you're supposed to scare the college freshmen.

And congrats to your wife on the acceptance, and grats on the BA.

On June 15th I'll have my Bachelors Degree in Hand. I technically graduated in March but not had the formal ceremony nor degree in hand.

At least I managed to land a job relevant to my profession. 8)

Thanks man. Good luck with the final grind, take a long break afterwards if you can. :D



I was thinking about passing on some pearls of wisdom to the potential freshmen, but then I couldn't come up with any. Oh well.

Oh, here's one: think about enduring a single Comp Sci class. it can be the difference between a BA and a BS. :?

Me too, though I don't get the diploma unit I finish Adult Ed..

And it's Kalamazoo Central High Scool (KCHS--GO GIANTS!!) for the both of us. The most unbelievable name for a town EVER.

Oh yeah, we're getting that Kalamazoo Promise thing you may have heard about. The free college and all that. ;;)

At my school we have a special scholorship for our graduates going to Beville State called the Jumpstart that pretty much covers your first year. I got that and another worth $800.

The Kalamazoo Promise is a charity organization that gives a percentage of College Tuition based on how long you were in Kalamazoo Public Schools. (KPS) If you were in there from Kindergarden until High School Graduation, they will pay 100% of College Tuition. But only to Michigan COlleges, like WMU, UofM, MSU, or most other colleges in Michigan. Tweezy is going to an Art College, I'm going to a Community College.

Our school's Lacrosse team, at the end of every match, would shout "ONE TWO THREE...GO GIANTS!" to Portage Schools, a part of Kalamazoo County who ISN'T eligable for the promise, they would say "ONE TWO THREE...WE GET THE PROMISE!!"

And it's different from a Scholarship, in that anyone who was in KPS BEFORE Ninth grade gets it. (Meaning you can't just put a senior in and expect the Promise)

So, let me get this straight. You're choosing to blow the cities money on community college, and not go to MSU, where they riot like once a week.

You know how much looting could be done?

Throw another on the pile. I'm finishing my second year of Graphic design today, and should hopefully be getting my diploma not long after. Sure, it's been absolute crap getting here, and I'm only passingly aware of the fact, but hey...

The Promise only pays for tuition, you still need the GPA to get in.

And I do NOT have the GPA to get in.

Also, it's NOT the cities money. It's all donations from very rich people. We don't KNOW who the rich people are, though.

Ah, okey dokey. So I assume you're going the "go to a CC for a better GPA then transfer route?" If not, hopefully you'll consider it. Community Colleges are awesome when it comes to helping transfer students to another Uni.

Also, some good news from my graduation front. Turns out I may have a investor willing to front up money for a VG idea of mine, depending on the cinematic(which I'm working on) and the demo.
So while it's not solid, it's a step in the right direction. Woots.
