So I went to college, and I was in everything. I figured I was making connections that would help me, since I was at least aware I needed some and didn't have any. Foolish child. Lynn Eliason got me to Germany, an opportunity I punted back through the end zone. Anything from any other faculty? No. Linda Milbury Chappell helped Daughter 2 get into firefighting. Anything from anyone else? No. Several college friends have become extremely successful, and justly so. They're smart, they're focused, and they deliver the goods. And they haven't tossed me so much as a chump collection case. They don't even respond to my holiday and birthday messages anymore.
If I remove my degree from the equation (and its value remains highly questionable), I am compelled to write Utah State off as a loss. Well, at least I was on scholarship.
