As I am working through week 5 of 9 in my final comp sci class, taking one per term as I have since the beginning, i am on track to graduate with a Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science on August 28th (the official publication of final grades for the current term).

On that date I can fill out the request form for graduation. 8 years ago I had reasoned that 8 years was going to pass regardless, what did I want to show for it?

It probably means less at my age of 55 than it would to a 20 some year old with regard to potential employment in the field, but I still made the journey... The next challenge will be to build things and put them into a portfolio.

Ever forward...
