Here is Chris’s announcement:

Guess what? After five and a half years of college I am planning on graduating this  fall. The commencement will be at the U of A, at the Barn Hill Arenaon Saturday, December 21, 2013 at 9:00am. There will be enough room for everyone who wants to come, and afterwards maybe we will have a party or something. I will post  more details as I learn about them, but for now you can visit this  website for details: http://registrar.uark.edu/1323.php

Hope to see you there,

Chris

From Patricia:  Chris has gone from an unschooled guy who didn’t learn to read until he was nine years old to a (almost) college graduate.  I think this says something positive about unschooling, yes?  Cliff had a huge part to play in helping Chris make this happen.  I, on the other hand, don’t care that much about college degrees for a number of reasons I won’t go into right now.  Of course, because Chris wanted to go, I supported and encouraged him as much as I could. Now that he is graduating, I am very excited, I must admit.
