    Can experience make up for a degree?

    Yeah, I hear what you all are saying. Let me just clarify however a couple of things. First, I have said in the past, that I will write anything. My background isn't just sports. I was the editorial editor in college, and covered a Bible museum beat and got a lot of fascinating stories about...

    Hahahahahahaha. Can't argue with that.

    Can experience make up for a degree?

    Well, the thing is that something has always built on something else. It was my work with the tv studio that lead to the newspaper. It was the newspaper faculty adviser that knew someone at the radio station. It was because of my internship at the radio station that the Aeros picked me up. It...

    I've just done a few games. Different teams. Plus it's All-Stars, so aren't they all good players?

    Can experience make up for a degree?

    No, I get that, Ace. I didn't mean quit from a particular job. I mean quit the industry altogether if I get laid off or something. And ****, you know what, if all I could get is covering Bumbledorf vs Bum-Dumb Tech, I'd still do it. It's sports. I read a thread just now about how covering...

    State HS Associations demanding more coverage of girl's sports

    Well if it's a privately-owned news paper, I wouldn't think so. I mean, that's freedom of the press. So I would think no, they can't outright demand it. But I'm sure it'd be really easy to put pressure on them, but refusing access to those media outlets. But I don't know, that's just what...

    Can experience make up for a degree?

    Sigh... is it even worth it to mention the fact that I'm 24, not 22? Just kidding. I get that you know what you're talking about. That's why I asked for your opinion. I just wanted to make sure that I was being understood clearly. But let's be honest, comments such as "Three classes shouldn't...

    Can experience make up for a degree?

    Look, I didn't say I'm great. But I know I have skills. I've done enough things badly to know when I do something well. And maybe pessimistic is the wrong word, and for that I apologize. But I can't go into something expecting to quit down the line. If I did that, why would I do it? So I'm...

    Can experience make up for a degree?

    Ok, let me address all these comments: First of all, hondo, it isn't a lot down the road, but it is now. HBU just jacked up their tuition by 10%. Ace, you're misunderstanding me. It is the Christianity credits that I'm short. If I could get the Christianity degree then I could get the...

    Can experience make up for a degree?

    Trust me. I've tried a lot of different things in my time in college. This is the first thing I've done that I'm any good at. It isn't just sports. I'll write about anything. But sports is my preference. But I know I was born to be a writer.

    I'm okay with a harder road. Just not an impossible one.

    Can experience make up for a degree?

    Well its not a matter of feeling like I have to use my degree. I want to use what I learned. That's why I learned it. I want to be a sportswriter. That's what I feel like I was born to do. Its not like my fiancee who is close to getting her accounting degree but hates accounting.

    Can experience make up for a degree?

    So, here is my dilemma. I am a 24 year-old former student at Houston Baptist University, where I was a double major in Mass Communication and Christianity. I have completed the mass comm program and am missing only three Christianity courses in order to earn my degree. My problem is that I am...
