Was I even aware of it at the time?<BR/><BR/>Shaun: Going to start my Masters at some point, probably a year down the line. I need to take several undergrad classes before I can begin that. We did not go up to RI just for the transcripts, but we did take a morning trip to Providence with that as my primary goal.<BR/><BR/>Christine: I'm only now just starting to care about my lame academic record, and much in the way depressed alkys in weep over lost loves whilst in their cups. I really feel like I (sometimes quite literally) slept through a great opportunity in my years at RISD. But even now I go on campus and feel like I really don't belong, so ha-ha on me.<BR/><BR/>Anonymous: I don't think what's going on here is bragging. In fact, maybe you want to look the word up - 'commiserating' is more what you're looking for.<BR/><BR/>D.Dave Koppermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09292071349686573917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2457411005352662997.post-6483773838458777472008-07-27T22:42:00.000-04:002008-07-27T22:42:00.000-04:00why do people brag about crappy grades?why do people brag about crappy grades?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2457411005352662997.post-67710871508668432542008-07-27T19:45:00.000-04:002008-07-27T19:45:00.000-04:00my gpa was even more redonkulous... but my reasoni...my gpa was even more redonkulous... but my reasoning was that the 'name' school would get me in the door (which i imagine has worked with your RISD diploma as well). it was only when i almost applied to grad school a few years ago that i actually started to care. (i've since stopped.)<BR/><BR/>some of my alumnae dollars quite literally went to a coffeehouse in the vassar library that was a class gift... and every single time i've returned as an alum, the kid who was supposed to work there hadn't shown up that day (except reunion weekend, but i suspect they staffed it with reunion volunteers rather than the regularly-employed students). way to get my money's worth.Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03700050344244008213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2457411005352662997.post-85786041461167459802008-07-26T13:36:00.000-04:002008-07-26T13:36:00.000-04:00Sounds fun.My university is also totally built up ...Sounds fun.<BR/>My university is also totally built up and different.
