What I read is that they did this as a "test" for the 'university' - and
they even requested his transcript - the school gave him a 3.5gpa!  That's
better than mine!  (my latest grading cam back 3.19 :/

Yes, and the "school" was so sly.  When they looked at his past
experience (which included managing a fast food restaurant and having a
paper route) they told him that he deserved more than the Bachelor's
degree that he requested and suggest he pay for the executive MBA.
Which of course, cost a little more.

Ya gotta wonder what the cat is going to do with that degree. =o)
Licorice conquered the world last month without one. Maybe the new
graduate will start a cat toy company, and personally test the products
himself.

Don't you just love how, at the bottom of the page, under "sponsored
links", are a bunch of links to the very same kind of "online
universities" this article is about? Is the fox guarding the chicken
coop here??
