oh yeah and the whole gettin paid thing....

PG51 is a great exaple...along with all the postgrads.

51 had to stay 29(?) months i think, just to graduate. for arbitrary reasons they got to keep a group of kids for almost an extra year. a few in that group actually graduated high school, but were still at hla taking correspondence courses with colleges becouse HLA wouldnt release their transcripts unless they completed the program.

Lacey:
Yeah, I remember all that. The same thing happen to... pg 56 I believe? Their program was like 28 or 29 months. Just because of when they came in.

Anonymous:
nope not 56...they...(we) actually had the record shortest program, just under 18 months. i think it was 59 that got the shaft too...really not sure though.


what happened is that originally they were supposed to graduate in december, but when HLA cancelled that grad it extended their stay by nearly a year. what i think is funny, which proves HLA is full of shit, is that they re-instituted december grad as soon as 51 left. i bet there's a long running pattern there.

RobertBruce:
What was the reason given for doing that?

Anonymous:
they said that kids were having trouble getting into other schools mid-year, in december. so they just kept the may, june, and august grads. it's rediculous, becouse what about the kids over 18 who were supposed to be in college? or the kids that WERE able to get into schools. just becouse of one or two kids, who couldnt pick a boarding school out of a short list, they made whole peergroups stay and extra year.
