His site is worth so much more than his degree, IMO. I guess this is the I-am-pot-committed-so-i-have-to-go-through-with-it effect. It's hard to make decisions

I guess this is the I-am-pot-committed-so-i-have-to-go-through-with-it effect. It's hard to make decisions based on future returns as suppose to past efforts.
- philjr 16y agoHe's a few weeks away from getting his degree, I think he's probably made the right call here - Take site down. Get degree. Put site back up.
- jaytee_clone 16y agoWhich do you think grabs more attention in a resume: - Graduated from xxx University with Honor in computer science OR - My site was so engaging to students that my university had to threaten to retract my degree three months prior to my graduation in order to force me to shutdown my site. This is the kind of PR Bill Gates get by dropping out of college. If I was him, I'd keep the site running, let the university take my degree, then take them to the court (knowing that I won't win), just to create more media attention. "A few weeks away from getting his degree" is exactly the kind of thinking that I'm trying to avoid. But of course, who knows what I would actually do when I'm in his shoes.
