Honestly, I worry for Wade on this stuff. This woman might do something crazy. If that means I'm profiling, oh well, but this gal needs some help.
She's wearing a Marquette shirt; damn-it!!!!!!!!
This is sad. She needs help.
Well, maybe not - thought I saw "TT" on there and an outline of the horrendous eagle profile.
Did she not get a fairly generous payout through the divorce? I would think she is a long financial distance from being out on the streets...
Yikes.
This ain't a good look.
Even if Dwyane was the worst person on the planet (not saying he is), this is a bad look for her.

Don't know the quality of the source, but it looks like she should be doing alright.

Isn't Siovaughn a Marquette graduate?

You sure can rack up a lot of bills when your husband has nearly zero living expenses; when you live in a University funded apt; when you have access to University funded daycare and when you work as a well paid for Admin Asst for a prominent University alum.
Dwayne has been a model father and has brought some sanity to his kids life. His ex-wife needs to get some help, it keeps getting sadder.
She dropped the $1 million lawsuit against him so she had to have the "press conference" to tell her side of the story.
Hate to see this, but if the payments of $35k are coming in, she needs to reevaluate what is important in her life.

If she is getting $35M/Month and he has custody of the kids then this is truly bizarre. I am not qualified professionally to judge but it would seem she has some mental issues that need resolution. Unless Chicago has become so expensive where $400,000 a year is insufficient to maintain a roof over one's head?
I like how in her haste to make the sign, originally forgot the "L" in children.
Doesn't necessarily follow that the sign was hastily made.
What I don't get is that there are two women in the photo. Who exactly is this other woman who's willing to assist a mentally unstable person protest her husband on the street corner?
She is seated outside the Dirksen federal courthouse in Chicago. She probably assumes she has diversity jurisdiction to bring her claim in federal court. Don't let the misspelled sign fool you.

I thought so, too, after those Dove commercials.
If the monthly settlements are what they are, they pale in comparison to the bigger pot: 1/2 of his earnings.
But doing what she is doing wouldn't seem to help her in future custody issues.
She needs to stay out the limelight for her sake...and the kids.
This won't end well for her.

Alumnus can be used to refer to anyone who has attended a university
Quote from: Steve Buscemi on July 20, 2013, 12:52:07 PM

Alumnus (per Webster's): "a person who has attended or graduated from a particular school."
You don't need a diploma to be an alum.....

Hopefully this is over now. She has already made a fool of herself.

Simple, you don't have to graduate to be an alum. Most schools require few semesters, but not graduation to be considered an alumnus.

Each school has their own "requirements" for alum status? Is the range from auditing a night class to receiving a degree? How many constitute "a few"? Where do schools publish these requirements?

Actually, yes.
For example, at Boise State you are considered an alumnus if you graduated OR requesting alumni status if you completed one term.
UCLA requires you to be a graduate
Michigan State does not require graduation, but merely completion of coursework
It's essentially each school's designation...it's their club so to speak.
Typically the requirements are with their alumni associations, often displayed on their websites.

funny your mind went there
The side discussion on what is required to technically be an "alumnus" is vintage MUScoop.

Not necessarily.
Theoretically, you could to somewhere else for 3+ years, then transfer into UCLA for one semester and get your degree. By the "graduate" definition, you'd be an alum.
On the other hand, you could go to UCLA for 3+ years, get great grades and then get accepted into medical or dental school (yes - it does happen). By UCLA's stated definition, you wouldn't be an alum...even though you attended UCLA far longer, paid far more money to the school, and did extremely well there.

Yep. At our school anyone who completed a semester and wants to be called an alum, is an alum. Money grabbing is the thing these days.

So this must explain Scott Walker as a Marquette "alum".

Marquette's official stance
Editor's Note: Several alumni questioned whether a news article in the Winter 2011 issue was inaccurate in referring to Wis. Gov. Scott Walker as an alumnus of Marquette. According to university records, Walker was a student at Marquette from fall 1986 to spring 1990, majoring in political science. He was a senior in good standing when he voluntarily withdrew from the university. He does not have a degree from Marquette but is considered an alumnus (non-graduate). The Alumni Association by-laws consider all those who have completed 24 credit hours or more as alumni. The status is granted after the student's class has graduated.

Which, by Marquette's set up, is finishing one year as a full time student, if I'm not mistaken.

Sometimes students aren't able to finish due to family issues, job opportunities, etc. I have no problem if a school considers someone an alumnus as long as their is a reasonable amount of time and\or degree earned. To me, one semester is a bit ridiculous. I'd require something like 48 credit hours or a degree (that covers those that transfer in for the end of their college career). But to each their own.
