Been there, done that too.

At 530 today, i will be there and do that again.

If I am twice a UL graduate, does that mean that I have to give back twice as much?

Hey, Rhineaux, I wish I had known you were going to be graduating this afternoon. I was there watching my baby bro get his Masters; I would have done a shout out for you!

On a sidenote, as I was entering the dome, I spied Coach Lee and staff exiting. Guess they were preparing for the game today. Witnessed several of them congratulating undergraduates, obviously strangers to them, who were leaving their ceremony. That was really cool to see.

Four times. The equation is the square of the number of times you graduate. Sorry, I don't make the rules.
