The low amount of finals I, eagle, and hornet have (I also only had two, and had them both today, so I'm done!) is due most likely to a combination of classes without finals (substitute a final paper in some cases) or validation of other courses (having a high enough grade at the end of class to earn exemption). Two of my classes did not have finals, and I validated two others, leaving me with law and biology.

Nope, G4C is Poli Sci, I believe. Law is a core class.

Our son got an exemption in computer science so was able to finish his finals quite early. He called us the other day to tell us that he got a 96 hour pass and was flying home on Thursday for a 3 day visit. It will be very nice since he doesn't have leave until 3rd period this summer. It will be great to see him.

Well I'm staying at the beautiful United States Air Force Academy. So there! haha

The firsties came back to my squad last night after the last final period and were soaking wet. They got one of the hallways basically soaked and I ate it when I was trying to get to someone else's room. Good times.

3 more years!!!
