After four long sordid years rife with trials and tribulations, many of which were entirely and solely due to the Institvte and its enjoyment of plundering my behind, I have finally, finally, FINALLY gotten my comeuppance.
Not only did I receive my official MIT degree this morning at around 11:40 am... but upon closer inspection, I discovered that MIT has officially awarded me with not merely a degree in Electrical Science and Engineering (as is my declared major), but a degree in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (the original major that I bailed out of due to my exceeding disdain for code). Despite the fact that I walked with the Electrical Engineers section, was announced as an Electrical Engineer, and filed my paperwork as an Electrical Engineer, lo and behold, upon my official diploma, it hereby decrees and bestows upon me the title of Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science.
I've always wanted to be 6-2... and now it's even official on paper. Thanks to a clerical error, I have at last reaped the rewards of shirking and avoiding code work like the herpes virus. I hereby declare myself victorious.
Further bulletins as events warrant.
P.S. Survey - what should I do with this erroneous degree? Capitalize on it, ask for a replacement and send it back, ask for a replacement and conveniently "lose" the original so I keep both, or just let it be? Readers, suggestions please.
