All those who went to five colleges in six years, weigh in here.

[Faygo Kid]

Wait a friggin' minute. I knew plenty of transfers, but I never met ANYONE who went to five colleges in six years.

What the hell is up with that? OK, time for some research, my friends.

[KathieG]

1. *crickets*

[Betsy Ross]

2. 3 in 11, sorry. eom

[beyurslf]

3. How did she graduate? Don't most Universities require that a certain portion of the upper level

classes be taken at their university?

[CoffeeCat]

9. That's a VERY good question...

Has anyone asked the college from which she claims to have graduated, if she
did graduate?

They can't tell you her grades, but they can tell you if she rec'd a diploma
and what degree she earned.

That would be a good research project.

[renie408]

20. Idaho State or University of Idaho? Something like that. n/t

[EFerrari]

11. Yes, they do. n/t

[Wetzelbill]

4. I went to two off and on for 7 years

And I thought I was a screwball.

[CoffeeCat]

5. Well, if she's as shallow and dumb as she sounds...

...she was probably forced to leave due to bad
grades.

That's my guess.

[LiberalFighter]

25. Bad grades or man trouble?

[DCBob]

6. Probably not another single individual in this country.

Very very weird. Any speculation on why?

[AllieB]

10. Some kind of scandal probably. Like plagiarism or cheating.

:shrug:

Or she could have had 'loose morals' before she found religion.

[renie408]

18. That phrase always makes me think of religion being under the sofa cushions or

having fallen behind the refrigerator. Then...voila!! It is FOUND!

[CoffeeCat]

12. I know someone who did...

[bigwillq]

7. 2 in 6

But I have known a few people that went to multiple schools. I don't really see this as an real issue.

[bigwillq]

8. dupe

[RollWithIt]

13. 3 in 8 years.... but I have two degrees! And I worked in between...

If I start shooting moose can I be Vice President?

[DemocratSinceBirth]

14. Three To Get An A.A. , B.S. , M.A, And Do Post Grad Work

Sometimes, athletes end up going to more than one high school or college to get playing time... She's scary...I can't imagine her as president...

[CoffeeCat]

15. Okaaaaaaaaaaaaay...look at this Palin video...

She sure makes it easy to believe that she went to multiple colleges in six years...

[ben_meyers]

16. Rhandi said today that one of them was a stinkin'

"community" college besides! What a LOSER! "snork"

[King Coal]

17. Do football games count?

[Forkboy]

19. Officially, or just to party?

[abumbyanyothername]

21. I enrolled three different times

4 if you count law school, but only 2 different colleges.

My moderately successful dinner gag line:

"It took me 6 years to finish 4 years of college in 3 years."

But it was the '70s.

[kestrel91316]

22. Someone has suggested in another thread that she might be

an untreated case of bipolar disorder (based on their knowing people with it pretty well).

I'm not gonna play Dr. Frist on this one. My experience is with schizophrenia, lol.

[AndreaCG]

26. Ooh, please do not lump us bipolars in Palin's category

I know all of us are slightly different in our manifestations, but she comes across as more of a narcissistic, sociopathic personality. With all the wisdom of Bush and warmth of Cheney. Gawd, Junior even looks a little less bad compared to her.

I have a T shirt, I never thought I'd miss Nixon. If Palin gets in will I have to get one saying I never thought I'd miss Bush?

[kestrel91316]

28. Yeah, I'm thinking malignant narcissist.

She sure got the malignant part right with her racist slur on Wednesday against community organizers.

[kestrel91316]

23. 1 in 8. Two degrees, no less.

[tammywammy]

24. I know someone that did

A university, then 1 community college then moved and another community college, then the local university and then finally decided on a degree and moved to a school that was excellent for it. *shrug*

I don't really find it too strange.


edited to add: I'm three schools, but there was an 8 year break since my last university and this one.

[PA Democrat]

27. I used to interview a lot of college grads for management positions

I never anything like that. It would have raised a lot of red flags for me, and I would have asked a LOT of questions about that time period, and looked very closely at the person's academic record.

[EstimatedProphet]

29. I went to 3 in 4

Listen, the college thing doesn't mean anything.
