15 Years 8 Months and 24 Days to Graduate from College

05.14.11

On Monday August 21, 1995, I started college at what was then known as the University of Missouri – Rolla (UMR), now referred to as Missouri University of Science and Technology (MST). If I recall correctly I started at 7:30am with an Algebra/Trig class designed to speed freshmen into the math program if you didn’t test out of the class. Even though I had taken Calculus in High School I wasn’t successful at testing out. Today, May 14, 2011, I am done with college, not done in as I am not going anymore (I leave that option open) but done in as I have a college degree. Before I talk about that here are some stats.

Update on school

Well I went to school this evening and dropped a course. I realized I was going to be missing 8-10 classes in this course alone this fall due to all of the trips scheduled, so I figured I would take some of my load off and only have one course this fall, intermediate micro. I still have a course to finish up from this summer, before the end of the fall semester, and after all the conferences and traveling are done I will probably sign up for an online course. That will leave me two classes left next spring to finish up my BS in Economics.
