CONGRATULATIONS TO EVERYONE THAT IS DONE AND TO EVERYONE STILL WORKING!!! YOu can do it!!! Just keep going!!! It may be painful but you WILL make it!!!:yes:

Okay...finally submitted my last assignment in Business Communication. Until I have my official diploma I cannot do a complete cartwheel yet!! So, I will do a handstand!! Woo Hoo!!! Gosh, life is good now!!
That brings up a question: When will our diplomas be available? The reason this is important is because the OU transcript - or at least mine - does not indicate that you've completed the program.

Good question. Gosh...seems like I read that it takes almost 3 months to get it. I would have to peruse the Ohio Student center again to find it.There must be some way to verify that you have graduated before hand. I hope so.

Since you are no longer enrolled...have you lost access to your student account? Just curious.

So what are you doing with all your free time? I can't wait to be where you are. It's over a year away for me.

Well...seems like I am checking Blackboard every five minutes for my grades for week 5 in two classes. Grrrr still not there yet. Then I am checking Ohio University Student Academics for final grades...but why would those be there when my week 5 grades are not in? Then I am checking my DARS to see if that has been upgraded...but, no!! I want to be official. I really did not do a lot of the projects in Business communication when my sister passed in March. I decided a passing grade was good enough and now I am sweating it!!! I did the extra credit and until that is counted...I have a C in that class. Yikes. Have A's in all my nursing, but really lost my "want to" for Business Communication projects. Luckily, the prof loved all my DB's and Reading Responses.

I was going to but ended up not going. The pin you can order through the bookstore online, if I'm not mistaken. I was just looking at them online a few days ago.

I still can't believe we're done!

Specializes in L&D and OR.

I went! Drove 5 hours to get there too :) it was actually awesome. The campus is absolutely breath taking. Just gorgeous. Did a small walking tour but it was so packed with people every where. I picked up my cap, gown and honor cords at Baker center. Had lunch there like a real student too. Headed to the convocation center and waited for 45 minutes until they took us in. Spent the time chatting with a bunch of rn to bsn students so that was awesome to meet people from our group. We stuck together the whole time, sat by each other and walked after each other. It was neat to hear the OU pride and all of the experiences the on campus students had. However, these are mostly 21-22 year old kids who have no clue about the real world. So listening to them all talking about "important" things like getting hammered that night, their wardrobes, and spending every 5 seconds fixing their hair with their iPhone camera app flipped around drove me nuts! That's why having my program friends was awesome! We just giggled at their antics. Otherwise, it was great. The speaker was a Washington post writer. They ripped on OSU a bit and mentioned Obama speaking there. It felt awesome to walk the stage and put the program behind me once and for all :) I would recommend it to anyone that can walk!

Oh...sounds like it was a great night. Glad to hear all about it!! I will have to settle for framing my Diploma and be happy with that. I did walk for my ADN and beamed ear to ear.

I have looked at the bookstore...not finding it. I would love to order the nursing pin. If anyone knows where to find it...please let me know.

Thanks

I found it the other night in the alumni store doing a search for alumni t-shirts. It's part of the book store but in the alumni section. If I find it, I'll PM you the link. I've debated about walking but won't walk until next spring for this summer's graduation. Will I even care by then?

EmJean. Your PM with the link is on its way

Thank you so much. I still don't know how you all found this bookstore. But, I sure appreciate the help.

I am going to order my pin and wear it with pride!!
