My college alumni magazine has done a profile of me, my preference for procrastination, and my weird work hours. (Warning: It's a PDF file.)
By the way, a correction: It didn't take me a decade to graduate college--just nine years!
Also, here's my lastest Pajamas podcast. I had a nice chat with La Shawn Barber and Daniel Drezner about the banking story, Hamas, and that wierd Bus Uncle video.
UPDATE: Still stuck on a deadline, back after fireworks week...
Nice profile. Congratulations!

Is the fault in Penn, rather than ourselves, that we are procrastinators? I'm just finishing after 12 years. The article is a wonderful profile of a memorable student who has done very well.

It must be Penn. I also finished up my course work in 2000, despite being originally scheduled to graduate in 1982.
Can't say as I missed the diploma while I figured out what I wanted to do with my life.
It was a great article.

Youthful rebellion. The final course in my political science major was so scattershot and ultimately meaningless that I refused to finish the final paper. I eventually took a grad course at Syracuse on my own and Penn accepted it for my final credits.
