{Jesse Jackson} attended the Chicago Theological Seminary on a scholarship. He dropped out in 1966, three classes short of earning his master’s degree, to focus full-time on the civil rights movement. He was ordained a minister in 1968, and in 2000, was awarded his Master of Divinity Degree based on his previous credits earned, plus his life experience and subsequent work.

Then I have to use passwords... so many passwords that I need a spreadsheet to remember them all. And the spreadsheet is password protected.
