Back on January 21, 2006, DH walked to the podium, shook a hand and graduated Magna Cum Laude with a BS degree. We were so excited and proud.
Then it hit. They could not confer all of his grades and he was going to have to take/CLEP out of a few courses. Okay, so he tested out of two of the three things they said he still needed. But, he just couldn’t seem to get out of the “dreaded math requirement”!
UGH!!
So, this summer he joined our local community college and took his math requirement - of course, he passed with flying colors! So, his grades were finally confered with the August graduate group.
No, he didn’t walk this time. And, we didn’t have another party. We were just relieved that he had finally completed all his requirements and the diploma had been issued.
So here’s to Barry, who now has his degree in BS! No, wait - he’s now a BS’er…. no, that’s not right….. Oh, yeah, now he has his BS.

Thanks for the post. I hope I don’t use my BS in MIS to BS. I think it would have been ok to have another party. Maybe just for us because I doubt that anyone else would have come the second time.By the way, play the update card.
