Need some COJ advice again

Yes he has called and supposedly gets the same answer.

And I totally agree about Tech that is why daughter is at OU

I guess it would depend on why you need to see the piece of paper - do you not trust your son?

BOOOMER SOONER BABY!!!!!!!

If your transition area is messed up and bike is turned over and/or missing at the Accenture Tri....I know nothing about it. Hook 'Em.

HEH! 

You know why Oklahoma is so windy, don't you?

Cause Texas Sucks and Kansas Blows.

I'll be here all week.

Oh, and don't mind me if I dunk you during the swim start. 

Enough with the phone calls.  Send them a letter.  First letter is very polite.  Second letter demands a diploma.  Third letter...

To be honest, most schools have better things to do than deal with alumni - you've already incurred tuition bills - your use is over for them.  Therefore, you become second-class citizens.

My other suggestion is coordinate your efforts through the alumni office - those are the people who will make you happy b/c they want you to donate $$...

bradleyd3 - 2008-08-11 3:48 PM Seems as if the thread is hijacked..... Overall UT vs. O-Who...... 57 - 40 And Texas doesn't fall into the Gulf of Mexico because Oklahoma sucks.....get the joke right.

Don't forget there is a tie in there somewhere from back in the 80's when we got "Screwed" and UT was more interested in kissing their sister than winning.

Frankly, it's about time Mac won something.  Like him.  Can't stand the team. 

CRIMSON AND CREAM!!!!!!!

to clarify - I read your post indicating you wanted the diploma itself.

as for a transcript, like others have said - have your son simply fill out a transcript request.

Get the piece of paper.

A friend of mine didn't do this.  He had one class to finish up his degree.  He took the class, turned in a final paper and assumed everything was done.  20 years later a prospective employer checked on his degree and his college said he didn't graduate! It is truly a mess and he's having a $%#^ of a time getting it figured out.

 Thanks for everyones advice and jokes.  I have sent him the link for the transcript, and like someone posted after he took the last course online, other than word of mouth there is no proof that he graduated.

Thanks again;

Dwayne

Even though you may have paid the bills, your son is an adult and the school will not discuss his grades/account with you as you are not his legal guardian.  He needs to contact the school and get the diploma himself.  It took my husband 2 years after he finished his last class to get the diploma.  There is a 2 year gap on his transcripts from the time he completed the course to the time that it shows him graduated b/c they wouldn't backdate the diploma.  Make sure your son has done the graduation audits and paid any necessary processing (graduation) fees that may exist.  Also he needs to have an outstanding accounts audit done to make sure he doesn't have any parking tickets, lab fees, library fees, etc. as those will also hold up the diploma.

did you go to Iowa?

I've heard this same thing about my old school...

A transcript saying he graduated is more valuable than a diploma.  If his employer got one that says he graduated, what more is there to worry about?

Sharpie.
