She got BA (Bachelor of Arts) Hons (Honours) in Graphic Design (3 year
course). The honours go like this:-
First
Upper Second (2.1)
Second (2.2)
Third
Ordinary (no honours)
She got a "Second" (colloquially known as a "Desmond" - as in - Bishop Desmond
TuTu). ;-)
In the photo the chap behind Rachel is her boyfriend (also got a BA in
Animation), and far right is my son Tom.
My own BA Hons was in English, doing my thesis on "Conduct" of Jane Austen's
female characters, which is by way of introducing the next sentence in
tortuous fashion!! Did you see Kiera Knightly in the film Pride & Prejudice,
very good, but personally I hoped she'd play the lead in "Emma" (rather than
Gwynneth Paltrow), since at the end she would have married Mr Knightly and we
could have left the cinema thinking about connotations of Twice Knightly. At
least I would have!!! ;-)
Cheers
Deri
