Got my diploma in the mail today. It is a Bachelors of Elective Studies from St. Cloud State University in St. Cloud, Minnesota.

I'm finally done. The 7 year plan was a little too long...:eek:

Thanks guys.

Basically it allows me to take tons of classes in different disciplines. About the only main requirement is you have to have 45 credits of upper division classes (not including general requirements).

My original major was Criminal Justice, before I "took a break". I just wanted to get it done ASAP so I went for the BES. :)

Ralli: actually, I am. I'll probably start putting in applications in the next month or so. I don't suspect I'll be in a new position until at least the fall.
