Followup to this post about my diploma.

After finally hearing that my diploma would be sent out, I thought my problems with GW were over.  I thought I could completely forget about all the crap I went through, now that I had my diploma coming.

However today, two days before I’m scheduled to move to a different state, what I got from GW was a big shipment of fail.

Your shipment of fail has been delivered

I opened up my package to find a nice diploma in a hardcover folder branded with the GW logo.  The diploma had my name, spelled correctly, which was a good start.  It also had my major, Computer Science, which was also a good sign.

The degree was a Master of Science.  I have a Bachelor of Science.

As nice as it would be to have a degree upgrade for free like that, I’m pretty sure that they made a mistake.  Again.  Just because I spent an extra year at GWU making up some requirements I needed to fulfill doesn’t mean I was in the Master program.  Unless this is some sort of free gift for paying so much for an extra year at GW, which I’d almost believe.

Who am I kidding?  Nothing at GW comes free.  Except the rape of your bank account.

I guess it was too soon to assume my GW troubles were over.
