I CAN HAZ CHEESEBURGERS. HANG IN THERE. O RLY? YA RLY? Everyone laughs every now and then at the internet memes involving cats and pictures. It’s a given considering that 72% of the internet is composed of adorable cat pictures. But education, like the internet, is serious business. Oh sure, it’s all fun and games up until someone lets their pet graduate from an online school.
The head of the Georgia division of the Better Business Bureau succeeded in getting his cat Oreo a high school diploma through a diploma mill as part of an ongoing investigation into such facilities, thus proving a low point for both studies and education: this really happened?
We really let a cat graduate with a GED equivalency? A cat named Oreo?
Really? Ugh.
