Got an email from Nikki bout a week ago, IIRC..nothing changed, they voted to keep the current Dec2009 deadline. Idiots.

At this point I would have been happy with a deadline....it's just the not knowing that's killing me.

I think you're referring to Virginia with that -- they're the ones that have the deadline. Georgia was more of just a heave-ho. :argue:

I Just Got An Email From A Member Of A Yahoo Group I'm With And I Think It Says That Ga Still Not Letting Excelsior Students Get A Lic.

It is my understanding that no decision was going to be made today. The meeting was with the GNA and the education committee of the GBON. The GNA is working very hard on part of the EC students, and a number of political figures are now in support of the EC students and graduates. We are hoping for at the very LEAST a window of time to allow those of us who have graduated to get our licenses and the current students enrolled to be allowed to finish. We may not know anything until Nov or even January. Trust me they (GBON) are in no hurry to resolve this issue!!!

That's horrible! I hope things work out for EC students in GA because this is really a shame.

OK- I am a dork. What does IIRC mean? I keep seeing people use it, and I need to know. :chuckle
