My husband & I are thrilled -- my sister's son is graduating from the University of Texas at Dallas on Saturday (May 6) with a bachelor of science in computer science -- magna cum laude.
Ryan graduated from high school in May 2003 and immediately began college. He went all year around and finished his undergraduate work in December 2005, but chose to wait until this month to graduate. This spring, he did 12 hours' graduate work in computer science (research & development, I think). He's doing a research project that will pay for most, if not all, of his graduate degree.
I think he's taking the summer off.
He really deserves it.
We were unable to attend his high school graduation 3 years ago. I was 3 weeks pre-op for MVR and my physical condition was too poor -- I didn't have the energy for the trip to/from Dallas and going to the graduation.
