Most of my friends from Columbia are going on to get advanced degrees. And why not? A Ph.D. is the new M.A., a master's is the new bachelor's, a B.A. is the new high school diploma, and a high school diploma is the new smiley-face sticker on your first-grade spelling test.

But why would it matter? We aren't ... or...uh...weren't ... Which is it, Jess? Aren't or weren't? Present or past tense? Now or then? We haven't been talking to each other. Past imperfect tense. How appropriate.
