Congrats , would have loved to have seen that . Our YR College (not a member ) confers the Super Ex degree . They do beautiful work .
Idaho doesnt' confer the Super Ex degree, but California does and one of these times I'm going to go down receive it.
Oh, Ash ... you're in trouble now! The YR does not like it when you call it the 'Super Ex', they keep telling me, "It's the Super Excellent Master degree, NOT the Super-Ex!" And they're not very friendly about it. either!!!
