Hey Tardo, on that rather sad exercise in narcissism that you call
your "website",

Obviously, you have no achievements you ar eproud of. I do.

Actually, I have plenty achievements I'm proud of, but I don't expect
other people to be impressed by the certificate I received upon
completion of kindergarden.


you say you spent some time in college-level
journalism seminars at Michigan State University, and you display an
image of something that LOOKS like a diploma, but which you refer to
as a "certificate of achievement".

It was a summer course of study, not a 4 year program. Lots of colleges
offer them for students looking for advanced placement later.



So did you graduate from Michigan State with an actual degree?

No. The session was for advanced High School students with some jounalism
experience, like being a school paper editor. Like many such courses, they
were a good introduction to college level studies and very useful towards
acceptance at another college, often for advanced placement.

Fascinating.


If so,
why don't you come out and say it? If not, why would you bother, after
all these many years, to roll out your ultimately insignificant
"certificate of achievement"? Inquiring minds want to know...

... because the site is, in part, a biography. And the course is one of the
things I did.

Yes, and a pretty minor thing, but it did result in something that
looks a lot like a diploma. In fact, it looks so much like a diploma
that you could reasonably expect a good proportion of visitors to your
site to see it and think it is a diploma.

Very interesting...
