OT: My wife got accepted into Rutgers

[BHSPCRU]

I am so proud of my wife who in her fourties has been accepted to RU after going back to school and getting her second Associates degree at Raritan Valley Community College. Never give up on your dreams or fear to change careers. Her goal is to get her degree from the School of Communication and Information. Lastly, she is incredibly happy to be attending the state university in New Jersey where we live. She is proud to be a Jersey girl!

That's fantastic. Good for her!

Congrats. What major?
Will your wife sit in the student section for football and basketball games or with you? :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Assuming she has 2 years to play 2? Can she kick?

I figure with a red shirt and an extra year beefing up in the weight room, maybe she can play some special teams. :)

Informatic Technology and Informatics is the official title. I told her I wanted to see her crowd surfing in the student section after a touchdown next year .

Thank you for sharing this news with us. I love stories of people who hang on to a dream and go after it no matter how long it takes. Perserverance is an attribute that can overcome many obstacles. Congratulations to your wife.

I noticed the OP made sure to post her age in first sentance to avoid what would have likely followed.

It was good thinking by him, but...

This thread is worthless without pics. :D

We don't age discriminate.

To OP: Does this mean I'll see her at frat parties and pub crawls?

 

[RUsince52]

What great news for you and RU. The beginning of a nice story. Unfortunately, she won't qualify as a graduate transfer and we need some of those people now.

That is a classic "Rutgersfan.com" response.

Bumped into her at the Hillsborough Deli on Saturday. I congratulated her then. She told me not to post that she was there, but what the hell. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Did she have on yoga pants?

PS- tell her we all say congratulations. For those of us that went to Rutgers in almost every way it has been beneficial

Did she have on yoga pants?

You betcha!

 

[DirtyRU]

In all seriousness though, OP- Congrats. That is good stuff indeed.

 

[cicero grimes]

Congrats! Best wishes on her success.

Great news, BHS. Congratulations to you and to MomsBHS!

 

[mildone]

You guys should celebrate with some quality hookers and blow.

At least she can now squeeze you into the student section.

 

[FELONIOUSMONK]

My girlfriend did too. In 1972.And me in 77.

 

[RUNVA]

Outstanding. I do not know her, but I am proud that she has the drive and determination to improve herself. Make sure she has the support to get through the Rutgers Screw, you know it is coming.

 

[RUinSantaFe]

Congratulations to your wife and to you for supporting her...very, very cool...I love stories like this!

Awesome for her for choosing Rutgers and ALSO for taking advantage of our excellent, affordable community college system. Students who complete their associates degree before transferring to four year schools have higher success rates than the general student population as a whole.

congrats, you have every right to be proud [cheers]
