Jeff's Masters Graduation!


This was a funny and interesting event. For a few reasons...
 
1. Jeff actually earned his Masters degree a year ago...but since he was in the direct PhD Program he didn't get it, but all the qualifications were met.
2. When he got his internship they said they would have paid us a few thousand more a year, had he had his Masters....shoot then we'll get it...they said OK.
3. Jeff didn't walk for his Bachelors, so I asked him if he would walk for his Masters....just for me.
4. He reluctantly agreed... :)
5. The graduation was long, and all of our kids were watch by some good friends...and it was Sunday and ...well we both snuck out as soon as they started awarding the Bachelor degrees.
 
In the end Jeff looked really sharp and I'm glad he went to 75% of the graduation. It helped us both feel like we had hit another milestone on this PhD journey!
 
Congrats Jeff!

Way to go, Jeff! I don't like the beard though. I like when Dave shaves too.
