Murph,

Since I can't do HTML or anything else like this I would like to make a suggested change to the profile page.

You have "Year of Graduation" for the field. I notice a lot of people put down "I got out". That got me thinking, since I have been emailing WENDY VAN BUSKIRK Smiling, that field seems exclusive for only people who graduated. I think it should be "class year at the Milt" or Year of Graduation or Year Would Have Graduated.

This way we hold true the phrase "Once a Milt Always a Milt".

profile update

OK I did one other little tweak to the profile form.
The "Student home graduated from" is now "Last seen in student home"
I also took out the "I Got Out" option under the student home field because thatt is now covered in the "Did you graduate from Milton Hershey School?" YES/NO option.

Graduate exclusion

FYI The year of graduation field does contain the I Got Out! choice. That is under Student home graduated from.

Quite Possibly, but . . .

I think so, but I would like others input.

You should go to bed with your wife drooling Don't make her a computer widow.

Your absolutely right...

I added a box to the milt info section of the profile page.
Did you graduate from The Milt? Pick Yes or No

Does that solve the issue?

jerry likes me?

I am inclined to agree with you. The whole class year thing does let those out who left or were asked to depart from the home. I'm sorry now that I used it my i.d. I guess I didn't realize that friends like Vikki and Meredith would find their way back. You crack me up. I thank you for quoting me. It's my feelings, and I'm glad to know that others have rallied around my banner.
