And checking it twice.
They sent out the list of graduating seniors. I'm on it this time! I wasn't on the first iteration (frantic visit to advisor ensues: "What else do I have to do to get out of here?"), but my advisor must have gotten all the paperwork in on time. Now all I have to do is get nothing less than a C this semester and I'm free! I can manage that. (I'll be happier about it when I can stop fretting about the dumb stuff I did—or think I did—on the microfabrication midterm.)
It's like being a short-timer except that two months in Engineering School Time is a lot longer than two months of normal life.
