Graduation Day! Yeah, I know it's living in the past, but for those in the family and friendship who couldn't make it to the ceremonies, here's a quick snapshot of some of the days' festivities.
 
Dr. Hetherington, the Director of UMKC Computer Science Telecommunications, is completely suprised that I would graduate from his academic program within his lifetime,or my lifetime for that matter. It was a pleasure to remain employed by this guy for so long; even though I was a severe thorn in his administrative proverbial paw. He never complained (in public.) 

I will give him good reviews for listening to the students and at least trying to do something about improving the antiquated educational system. However, I still have a problem with his "Distribution of Archival Information" theory for undergraduate programs. But overall considering, he's a super-great guy. 

Note the prized CST Coffee Cup and T-Shirt I'm holding.

 
 
This is my backup Mom and Dad. Both were delighted to see me graduate, but Ralph is still a little skeptical of us 'educated folk'.
 
And of course, Dr. B again. This guy deserves the "Most Outstanding Opportunity-Opener of My Life" Award. He's the proud owner of a Silver Tongue, a Golden Ear, and a Pickled Liver. Thanx Ken...
