    Congrats! Welcome to the club! Seems like yesterday I got mine, but it was actually back in 1995. Time flies!

    Being an Eagle Scout will serve you well for the rest of your life. My junior year at college I had an engineering professor that was VERY tough and really challenged the entire class. Sitting in his office one day I noticed an old framed eagle badge. I mentioned I was also an Eagle Scout. From that moment on he went out of his way to help me. He turned into a great advisor, and before I graduated he made some calls and set me up with my first engineering job.
