To be fair to the other professors, there is a 83% chance that Crespi is actually a machine and doesn't have to sleep.

It seems very counter intuitive for them to drag out getting our grades back. The sooner we get our grades, the better chance we have at getting good summer jobs.

It was nice of Crespi to subtly let us know that, if we didn't get an email, we got a B or an A.

Did he say there was an actual F? Or did he just say he emailed C's and D's?

Not so fast, my friend. He said he e-mailed the highest grade, the D's, and the F's (if any).

I thought he said C's as well.

Also, I hope the weather continues and it's shut down tomorrow.

are you dropping out or just waiting to get your grades before you decide to stick with it?

Same here. I still don't understand why they wouldn't have disbursed at least a portion of the money to us by now.

I think a more pertinent point is that their own website said money disbursed on the 3rd.

I got an email saying my money has disbursed.

Why is it less than the previous semester?

Crespi said that he emailed the highest grade and D's and the F's in any.

My refund was deposited into my bank account this morning. Friday I received an email that said within 48 hours my refund would be deposited into my account and this morning it was.

4. Win National Chamionship
5. Get Musberger to gush about him like a 12 year old girl talking about Beiber

Things Cam Newton can't do:
1. Get loan money disbursed

There's still about a $700 discrepancy.

Did you waive the student health insurance for the spring semester? It's $715.

Not enrolled at SMU - yet, I hope. But this made me laugh out loud in Starbucks.

There is absolutely no difference between this semester and last semester. I'll call the FA office soon when I am relaxed, because such a call is sure to make me want to shoot Stan Eddy.

We doubted Cam. I finally received the e-mail about getting the disbursement :D

They did a nice job with the Gatorade. Too often the players don't get it high enough to really drench the coach's head.

You probably better just keep your mouth shut. Any indication of ungratefulness is likely to cause them to remove the money from your bank account.
