<p>2002 was a long time ago. I have friend whose kid graduated with an systems engineering degree and a masters in economics (or reverse) in 2005 in 4 years with no stress. If D or friends chose to a masters in some low stress fields, they could probably still do it in 4 assuming they kept all their high school credits along the way. But no one there is in a hurry to leave. </p>
<p>I know of several who have not left campus in 10-15 years and keep accumulating degrees! It is like they are living on Gilligan’s island with no way to leave. Given a chance, D would do the same.
