^ What?? That's absolutely terrible! I'm incredibly sorry to hear that. I can't believe a University, a place that is supposed to encourage diversity, would do such a thing..

I'm finally finishing university after 4 long years this week

I'm so happy to move away from Birmingham and back down south where the grass is definitely greener.

I'll have to come back up for my graduation ceremony in July Cannot wait!

Wow begin again!

Woohoo Jenny!!

Ya Steph! What are you taking?

After a much needed break, I am back at school. I will be taking Western Civilization and History. I am looking into adding a third class. I have 20 credits left until this degree is completed, and then I will be with my Interpreter's degree. What happened is I wasn't registered with the right degree, and so I was working toward one degree which is what I want to go in with my ITP, so I am basically half and half with both degrees. Associates of Applied Arts and Associates of Social Science Interpreting Program for ASL. From there looking at Galluadet University or Liberty University. Galludet has it's perks there is a satellite campus 2 hours from home, in a city where I know people. Main campus of Galluadet is in Virginia as well as Liberty.

Thanks Mandie! I'm so excited, final exam tomorrow morning and then I will be done!

I got my grade back for my research dissertation and viva, I got a 2:1 (64%)!! I think it is equivalent to 3.33-3.67 according to the American GPA. Considering I thought I'd failed my viva altogether, I'm quite pleased with my result

Well done Steph! First year was so easy compared to final year.

Wow, congrats on your dissertation, and good luck tomorrow!

To fill in my form:
Degree(s): Have a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology from Utrecht University, and currently getting my Master of Science degree in Environmental Biology, from that same university.
Graduation Year(s) (or expecting): Bachelor: 2013, Master: expected in early 2016

Had some delay due to some medical stuff, but well, the master's is a 2-year program, and if everything goes alright from here on out, I've only been delayed for 1.5 years, and that's very much acceptable in my country.
Though it's not so very important in my country, I'm still pretty proud of myself for maintaining a 3.9 GPA in my Master so far Hope I can keep it that way!

Currently I'm doing a 6-month research internship at WWF Netherlands, and though I very much enjoy it, I'm also reeeally looking forward to wrap up this student life after 6.5 years, and get on to the next step
I've been feeling sooo tired lately, been in bed for 3 days last week with a terrible headache and I'm still not feeling very well. I just finished my major (9-month) research project on the last day of March after a very stressful period full of complicated statistical stuff, and I started this internship on the first day of April.. I really need a break.

Congratulations, everyone.
And for those who are returning to school - good luck! It's fun to learn new things.

I graduate with a Bachelor's this month in Behavioral Science. With a GPA of 3.8... super excited for myself.
