Associate in Applied Science Degree in Accounting - Achieved 2011

July 22, 2011, at approximately 9:00 pm, in the auditorium of Walter Williams High School in Burlington, NC, Dr. Martin H. Nadelman conferred my degree. I am now officially a holder of an Associate Degree in Accounting. 

My name printed in the program, I doubled checked to make sure it was there.

Here I am entering the stage as my name is being announced. (Last name pronounced correctly.)

Getting the congratulatory handshake and extra acknowledgment for graduating with high honors.

Exiting the stage with degree in hand. 

(Ok, just the cover for the degree, the degree will be mailed at a later date.)

The gold cords I have around my neck and for graduating with high honors. You must have a GPA of 3.8 or higher to qualify for the high honors, mine came in at 3.848. The golden stole is my Phi Theta Kappa stole from the Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society, this society requires maintaining a GPA of 3.5 or higher to be inducted into the society.

Here I am with my great friend, TammyJo; we were there helping and encouraging each other all the way. Congratulations TammyJo!

All my bling!
