[mikeytherat]

29. College of Arts and Sciences - Department of Comm. Studies

Journalism and Media Info Systems majors
English and Business minors

Double majors and minors, but I got out in five.

(sorry I wasn't with you on the "college" thang -- pre-coffee)

By the way, love your screen name (I am a bassist).

[ContraBass Black]

31. I'm a vocal contrabass.

And a cellist. VT Computer Science Class of (hopefully) 2007, and minoring in Professional Writing.

[mikeytherat]

33. I'm a tenor (actually natural baritone) but I sing alto frequently

(I've even had to sing second soprano - yes, I have a pretty nifty falsetto).

Media Info Systems was what we called "computers and broadcasting" back in the 80s (when I had my IBM dual-floppy - no hard drive - tiny amber screen "sewing machine" portable PC. I got a 1200 baud modem, and everyone thought I was the man!).

Lived in Vawter freshman year, traversed the steam tunnels, and had many a snowball fight on the drillfield.

Memories...

32. Hey, Me Too!

Of course i'm not at liberty to discuss if they were correct or not.

[mikeytherat]

35. I'm a big guy (6' 3"), but I have a unique ability for stealth

(I can sneak up on just about anyone). A friend claims I am Leon from The Professional (whom, I must admit, I do resemble).

No women, no kids - that's The Code

[ProfessorGAC]

37. Mechanics Need No Cover

Everything appears to be an accident. Oops! I fear i've said too much.

[AllegroRondo]

4. I though I was getting a Cum Laude

instead I got a "go quietly"

[Richardo]

5. .

BTW: :rofl:

[AllegroRondo]

6. I'm here till Sunday. Try the veal.

[Joey Liberal]

8. Voted most likely to be a mob boss n.t

[formerrepuke]

10. "Lifetime Recipient of Alumni Donation Requests"

[Patiod]

25. Oooo!!! I got that one too!!!

I forgot to add it to my list!

[In_The_Wind]

11. I made the Dean's List a few times.

I was elected to the college council. I was a member of our college radio station. College was a great time in my life.

[FuzzySlippers]

12. Phi Beta Kappa

Graduated with High Distinction.

[Bunny]

16. Funny. I graduated with "High" Distinction too!

Most Bong-Hits by a Senior - Female Bantamweight Division.

:rofl:

[FuzzySlippers]

18. Well, of course that's what I meant, too.

Did you think I meant some academic honor?

:rofl:

[Richardo]

21. .

:spray:

[SOteric]

13. I received my 17 doctorates degrees at the age of 6 months

suma cum laude.

Oh.

Wait.

Wrong thread.

:hi:

[Beware the Beast Man]

14. Most likely to suck seed.

[asthmaticeog]

17. So THAT'S what those towels are for!

[DanCa]

15. My DND Character was the first to make it tenth level.

I miss first edition Paladins.

[Patiod]

19. Phoenix Pin of Recognition

Sister of the Month at my sorority.

As far as academic honors, I managed to finally pass calculus after failing twice by taking the class with the football team. All tests were True/False, and a 50% was a passing grade.

GOD BLESS THE NITTANY LIONS!!!!

[Reverend_Smitty]

20. When I walk in May I will be summa cum laude

but whether I keep that honor depends entirely on how I do this semester

[jane_pippin]

22. I graduated "with honors" from my gradeless hippie college.

We didn't have the valedictorian and all that since we had no GPA to figure them by. Instead they have this thing called "honors" and anybody who meets the criteria, (which are pretty strict, I've heard), gets 'em.

But other than that, eh, I got nothin'

[ET Awful]

23. College? Isn't that the place where people with more money and less

immediate need for gainful employment than me went after high school?

[SeattleGirl]

24. I got a full ride scholarship for my junior and senior years

and the college I went to wasn't cheap by any means. Plus I was named President of my psychology Honor Society in my senior year. Won the first "Spirit of the Campus" award -- and no,it wasn't for cheerleading. It meant I was the student who best embodied the Jesuit ideals of leadership, scholarship, and service. And I graduated Magna Cum Laude.

Okay,I'm done bragging now.

[Aristus]

27. I was invited to join Phi Theta Kappa.

Phi THETA Kappa, not Phi BETA. I think Phi Theta is for so-so students who accidentally post fairly good grades once in a while. I did that a time or two in college.

[Lavender Brown]

28. I got Distinction for my senior thesis

YAY Wordsworth! :bounce:

[taterguy]

30. Second place, Sixties Dance Costume Contest, 1989

[BikeWriter]

34. Dean's List, President's List. I went on the GI Bill.

[LaraMN]

36. Well...hmm... the honor of being knocked up, I guess.

I have some honors notation on my AA degree, and I'm working on my bachelor's still.

[RumpusCat]

38. High Honors for my thesis

Seriously. :smoke:

[hunter]

39. I graduated.

Anything more would have been pushing it.

I was lucky they let me back in.
