Yeah, Dana and Smooth, your situations do seem more dire than mine. Thanks for the perspective.
I've given up on the honors degree. I could still do departmental honors, but with a job, husband and kids, I just don't think it's worth the stress. Better to focus on a good GPA.
At least I'll have the nifty Phi Kappa Phi cord at graduation.
IF I ever get there!
BTW, I have to write a 2000 word paper on "Araby" by next Friday. Just got the assignment yesterday and haven't even read the piece yet. Yippee!
