I had been wondering about that and have concluded it stands for "global warming."

lol- and here I was trying to figure out how to put a flattering spin on my motleyed educational path.
I did get my BA in psych and soc a the U of Richmond, but learned nothing at all that I remember very clearly from the 60s, though I did have a great time. Went to grad school for a year at UVa in theatre, dropped out when I realized that I didn't have the drive or thick skin to take on that world- nor the talent probably. Let's see- went back after I had babies and got an associate degree in music. Had studied voice and piano all my life, so that was really just fun. Went back VERY briefly to get an MA in testing and diagnostics, decided that was extremely boring and dropped out. Besides I would have had to retake the GREs before they would let me get the degree (which makes no sense to me at all since I could take the classes and since I was obviously passing, then who cared if I could officially have gotten in??) There was no way I could pass the math again. I could barely do my sons' third grade math homework.

It seemed by that point that degrees were superfluous and I should just do what I wanted.
Which now that I am writing this down, seems to be what I did all along anyway.
Very short attention span.
