Though I officially graduated in December, I still plan to attend my class’s graduation ceremony in May. Anyone is welcome to attend, though I certainly wouldn’t be hurt if no one wants to come (I’m not big on such ceremonies myself). The graduation ceremony is on Monday, May 21 at 9:00 AM (a rather inconvenient time, I’m aware). Also, tickets are free, but I’m only allowed 8 tickets, and since my parents and sisters are attending, I’ll only have 3 extra tickets.
I should also note here that I recently received word that I’ve been awarded a scholarship to study for my M.A. at the University of Georgia. I haven’t committed yet, but this seems like a great opportunity. I would appreciate your prayers as I wait to hear from other programs before making my decision.
P.S. Seth, have you looked any more into UGA?

I’ll keep praying.
Ooo! I’d love to come! I shall see as the date gets closer if it is a possibility for mwa.
UGA is only 4 hours from us… 😀
James, we are excited that God is opening doors.
We will be praying as you make this decision.
James, we won’t be able to attend your graduation, but we’re very happy for you and I hope that it is a very good experience (even though you don’t like ceremonies very much 🙂 )
We wont be able to make it…but congrats. Looking forward to what God has in store for you in the future! (I am sure you are too!!)
James, my graduation is the 18th of May, so I am not sure if I will be able to make it to the East coast in time. I did look again at postdoc positions at UGA, but it seems to me that I am not qualified to do the the research they do there.
