Here I am, browsing the internets, and I get an email.

Not just any email.

It tells me that because I have >30 credits needed for my primary degree, I can take the full on second degree, as opposed to a double major certificate. So he's noticed in my degree report.

But then it says "Art"... >.> Here's to hoping that was a form letter and it was copypasta'd.

He also appeals to my whatever-sense when he says "If you elect to change your Electrical Engineering double major to a 2nd degree this would allow you to receive two large diplomas instead of one large diploma for your Computer Engineering degree and a double major certificate for Electrical Engineering."

TWO LARGE DIPLOMAS! Twice the framing cost! Count me in! Yay for taking crazy classes to pad out the semesters...

Anyway. I'm slightly wary, as the mail was unsolicited, and also, he says "Art".

We'll see. I guess I should go talk to my advisor and make sure this guy's story checks out, though the info/names/addresses seem legit.

It does appear that someone has been rooting around my degree reports as of a few days ago, so his story checks out a bit more. Though my reports say I have 181 earned, excluding this semester, 185 including. He says I have 172 including...

I'm wondering if it's just some odd typo/being busy or something. Maybe he looked above/below my entry or something. Who knows.

He replied, so it's not a spam, at least. Maybe the Art person has 172 hours? Either way 172 is still at least 30 more than 131.

I'll talk to my advisor.

hi..
I'm back. Um, you had a japanese address? Hmm... That's interesting... =)

....
Be careful. Definitely talk with your adviser on that.

Talk to your advisor.. I'm not going to talk to mine cause although my mother said I can get a Business Administration degree along with the one I'm getting for my Accounting and Finance if I were to submit a thesis somewhere in my second year, I don't quite trust what advisors in my campus says anymore.
