Today I am registering for 2 online graduate courses at the University of Florida. It is a complete waste since I could probably teach most of the classes at this point in my career, but since my company will pay for it I may as well take advantage. I may just become a semi-professional student as I can get between $7,500 - 10,000 a year in tuition for work related classes.
