Everybody’s fallen in line with that.

My daughter is a senior at VT and she says she rarely sees the football players after the first week in class. One last semester didn’t attend one class after the first day and she said the prof joked about it all semester. He was at Top of the Stairs a lot though.

"No class. I graduated two years ago," Beck said..

They have to be enrolled in 9 credit hrs per semester in grad school

Probably all remote learning on students pace
tallahasseehokie • 01/20/26 01:13 PM ET
That's what I thought as well**
uber hokie • 01/19/26 12:40 PM ET
All 9 can be online**
UpperQuad • 01/19/26 01:16 AM ET
But still it’s technically a “ class” **
uber hokie • 01/20/26 12:09 PM ET
Sure it’s just the way he said
hokiepro • 01/19/26 01:33 AM ET
It's also just the way his actual comments have been clipped and spun...
I love VT! • 01/19/26 09:06 AM ET
I commend he and Mendoza for graduating early
tallahasseehokie • 01/20/26 01:16 PM ET
But the thing is...he didn't make a "stunning admission"

Many schools have online Masters degree programs that they can do
UpperQuad • 01/18/26 07:18 PM ET
