He will be receiving an EEVBlog uRuler as a graduation present.

Congrats to him and both you and your SO.  Best of luck to him.   :clap:
I can still recall the time when I got the Letter.

Can I ask what school he's going to?

Apart from it not be an engineer, nothing really.

Geologists know where to find oil and precious stones. Engineers don't.

Look at the date. I think he's not only graduated (six years later, i.e. now), but is also already employed.

Yep... a long road for sure but its a co-op school so they go to work every 4 months for 4 months. He also took some extra "interest" courses, mostly power electronics I think. He is now a test engineer at a company that makes electric vehicle chargers.
