Tux of Borg Posted April 12, 2005 Share Posted April 12, 2005 I met the guy who holds the record. An old Vietnam vet who just finished his 23rd degree! The summer time he hops in his van and drives around the country. In the fall he reports back to school. He said he makes more going to school than he would in the real world.

plenzmd1 Posted April 12, 2005 Share Posted April 12, 2005 Can't blame the guy. The funnest 5 years of my life. Had a buddy who took seven, but 11 is stretching it. Funniest line I heard from my best friend at school who got married the summer after graduation " I don't know what happpened, I woke up from a five year drunk, and I was married". BTW, I redshirted freshman year, so the five year plan was planned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Name is Roland Houle. His father, a doctor, told him as long as he was in college, he'd pay for it. So, he became a professional student. Unbelievable.

It is truly amazing however, how bad my spelling has become since the invention of spellcheck. Hard to believe I could actually spell back in the day, before PCs, which BTW was when I was in college Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Tate Posted April 12, 2005 Share Posted April 12, 2005 Tommy: Did you hear I graduated? Richard Hayden: Yeah and just a shade under a decade. All right.

coloradobillsfan Posted April 12, 2005 Share Posted April 12, 2005 He started attending classes full time in 1994, "before the Internet," as he likes to say. if this guy truly thinks 1994 was before the internet maybe he needs a couple more decades of education Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billsflippinrule Posted April 12, 2005 Share Posted April 12, 2005 This guy and I are both in UW-Whitewater. He's running for student president. Him and his running mate's slogan is "who else has 15 years of college experience?" something like that. Wish I could just stick around for another ten years or so. I love being a slacker.

CW 302978[/snapback] 1994 wasn't pre-internet, it was pre Internet boom. If you were smart enough to hop on the Internet business bandwagon in 1994, you're probably quite rich about now.
