And you graduated? With what...a degree in journalism?


No, I did not. When I went back to school, I wanted to study what I thought
useful and relevant, not a proscribed specialization or major with course
requirements. I took everything from sociology and cultural anthropology to
statistics, math and literature. I only took one broadcast course, in fact.
I quit the university when a headhunter convinced me that running a radio
group was going to be more productive than getting a degree the employer did
not care one hoot about, anyway.


That's fine. I don't care about your career path, but you must realize
that no one is going to be impressed by the GPA of a person who never
crossed the finish line. That's like boasting that you once led the
Boston Marathon...for the first five seconds.
