Graduating College

Pylon · May 23, 2005, 05:42:52 AM

Today was quite the day. It was the 65th Commencement Exercises for Siena College (in Loudonville, New York), in which I was honored to have participated and been conferred my degree: Bachelor of Arts, in History and French.

Father President Kevin Mackin, OFM, and His Excellency, Most. Rev. Howard Hubbard conferred my degree on behalf of the Siena College Board of Trustees and the New York State Board of Regents.

Needless to say, I am very excited. It was the culmination of four years of work and I'm very happy to have finally completed it.

CONGRATULATIONS to you!
I well remember when I got my degree.
Sometimes it seemed like I would NEVER get to that day!!

It's official -- everyone looks stupid in that hat!!!

Congratulations, Mike. It'll be nice to have you home again (though, quite honestly, I would understand if you got a job in a sunnier part of the country).

Time to get crackin' on the French history web site we talked about!

So did you graduate with any distinctions?

Congratulations. Now get a job! Just kidding. I wish you the best as you continue onto the next phase of your life.

*Bump*

I know this is a bit late, but I wanted to tell you congratulations on graduating from college. I'm currently in this phase where I love college and want to stay there forever, but also want to get done as soon as possible to get on with my life and other personal reasons. I think I may be a little too anxious to settle down, have a family, and make a lot of money. Not to mention the close-to-4-years I have of chiropractic school after undergrad.

What are you planning on doing with your degree? Any graduate school in the works?

Once again, congratulations! I'll be there soon enough...

congrats on graduating. I am aware that is late however, good job. Enjoy your after college days.

Congrats on your degree. I think you look great in your cap, gown and hood! It's hard work that will pay off for you I'm sure.

I just finished up with my doctorate in ministry last month and it hasn't quite sunk in that I'm done with school just yet. Has it for you?

At any rate, I'm attaching a pic from my graduation day with my 1-year-old daughter.

A Doctorate is no small feat!
