Baystate, ol' Baystate,
We'll give our best to you.
Thee, our Alma Mater,
We'll cherish for all time.
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
Massachusetts, yours and mine."
– Fred D. Griggs (Class of 1913)
I got my diploma in the mail today! Yay! I did a little hoopla-happy-dance by the mailbox when I saw it- I was told not to expect it at least until next month. Icing on the cake? I had no idea I was graduating "Cum Laude" until I saw the diploma. Then I called my mom to soak up a little parental approval- I'm still a sucker. Not that this is going to buy me points for very long- my oldest sister, whose shoes I will never ever fill, is graduating with her PhD in May. Mom says it will be a "joint graduation party". Uh-huh. I'm ok with it. ;)

congrats. For my BD years ago my parents had my first degree framed. I have a little blip of pride every time I pass by it in the hallway. I would love to have degree #2 join it.
Congrants on a wonderful achievement!
And I'm with Sacha- a framed degree is a great thing to look at! My parents bought me the fancy pants school logo frame for my masters degree and I was so excited once I had an office to hang it in.
Congratulations. By all means, frame it fancy!
