    Went for a semester, too many pairs of distractions. So I fell back on construction and went to the school of hard knocks.

    Next May will be graduating with:
    Bachelors in English
    Bachelors in Philosophy

    Will be staying here at UW for 2 more years earning a Masters but really the only reason is because I'll be teaching Intro to English Lit. classes and therefore be receiving a hefty stipend.

    After that, I'll either:
    a) Go to law school
    b) Earn a PhD in English Literature and pursue a professorship.

    Most likely both choices a & b will be at Stanford, Berkley, or Washington. Anyone graduate from there?

    Yes I have, twice. My most recent degree was done 100% online, and I received my second associates degree last December. If anyone ever tells you that going online is easier, then they have no idea what they are talking about. I lived work and school nonstop for 16 months. I graduated with honors, and am job hunting now.

    I actually liked it, and would go the online route again in a heartbeat. I spent many a slow hour at work working on classes as well, and loved being able to log on and work on classes at any time, and going the online route made me able to enroll in a degree program that was simply not available anywhere near where I lived. :cool: I had to work hard to keep up with the pace.
