MORE ON WALTER BREEN AT JOHNS HOPKINS

Regarding Walter's Breen's academic achievement at Johns Hopkins University, Pete Smith writes:

Walter Breen was apparently not involved with extra-curricular activity at Johns Hopkins. Duh! Maybe he was too busy studying.

Ken Berger writes:

Let's assume a Bachelor's degree consists of 128 semester credits. Let's further assume that each course consists of 4 credits (although 3 credits is more common). Thus, 128 credits divided by 4 credits per course equals 32 courses, further divided by 2 semesters equals 16 courses per semester. Thus, Breen must have tested out of some courses and achieved part of his credit that way.
