[school-discuss] College finally paid for itself

["Dr. Richard S. Wallace" <drwallace@alicebot.org>]

My college education was finally paid off today.  The letter I received in
the mail from
the Florida Department of Education is not exactly the end product I
expected from the
Carnegie Mellon Ph.D., but it has a certain comedy value.  Now I am back to
where I started
in about 1980, only 22 years wasted :-)

Thank goodness CMU can now release my valuable academic records!
