The end to an era

[omly]

Of the 4 people previously in our old apartment, the final (yet eldest) one just graduated yesterday. I didn't have any doubts that he could, but he took the long route via 3 majors and 6 years. All of us made it to each of the other's graduations, so it was somewhat sad to go to this last one. I am somewhat sad to see the end of this era.

It was a wonderful day for the graduation itself though. Great weather for both the ceremony and bbq afterwords. Also after the ceremony I saw someone I graduated with. I miss my classmate, but she seems really happy in her program when I talked to her about it (other than the heat). Her boyfriend was also graduating and they will be moving in together in the Virginia area.

Note to self: send them a card after they have had a chance to settle in a bit.

What is it with you people and 3 majors? I wonder what the record is? Know anybody with 4?

He only graduated wth one major he just didn't get straight to the right one initially. It was only on the third try that he actually finished the degree he was going for.

Oh. 3 majors as in he changed his major twice during the course of his college career. LOL.

A guy I know who was a chemistry major with 2 semesters to go switched to Accounting recently. lol!

These three majors were all involved with robotics, so there is at least that. They were not completely unrelated.

What school is this that he goes to where you have 3 different degrees in "robotics." Down around these parts, we just have your staple science and engineering degrees.

All three weren't in robotics, merely related to: EE, EME, CS (for AI).
