My degree came in the mail today. It seemed so unofficial -- showing up via the postman in a little cardboard tube, without a frame or anything to hold it in. But there it was -- 3.5 years of my private education summed up on one piece of paper. It's pretty surreal, but a huge milestone.
Now all I need is a place to put my degree. If only I had an office...But I suppose that would require having a job first.
*** Correction 1/26: Turns out, there was a little miscommunication and I graduated summa cum laude instead of magna cum laude! I knew there was something off when I found out what the GPA distinctions were between magna and summa and then compared it to my GPA in both majors and cumulative. I had to email the Registrar's Office at my school and badger them to make sure that they had it right and that I was understanding it correctly, but it paid off because now I am getting a degree with the correct GPA distinction. When you put in all of the hard work, you want to make sure it's acknowledged (and looks nice framed!)
