Kevin, Chris to Graduate "College"

ATLANTA (AP Wire) -- Atlanta natives Kevin Randall "Randy" Skinner and Christopher William "Big Bill" Skinner, shown here in the Summer of '98, are set to graduate college this Winter. The date is Saturday, December 18th, for both of them.

Kevin, who attends Georgia Tech, will be graduating with a degree in Civil Engineering and a Co-op certificate. Kevin worked for the engineering firm Cape & Pond while at Tech, and participated in such activities as complaining about classes, complaining about the professors, complaining about the work load, and steadfastly refusing to participate in anything related to life on campus. The author, who participated in the exact same college activities during his tenure at Tech, commends Kevin for his work.

Chris will be "graduating" from the State University of West Georgia with a degree in Business Information Systems. While at "college", Chris worked out, got buff, studied hard and made good grades, finishing with a 3+ GPA. However, Chris wonders what good all this college crap was. Read Chris's essay to find out more. The following quotes will sum up Chris's education at West Georgia:

  "I have no idea what Business Information Systems are, but I'm getting a degree in it." 
  "I couldn't get my modem to work, so I gave up."
          - Chris Skinner

Congratulations, Chris and Kevin, and best of luck in your careers.
