Warren L. from Libre-arian has a post summing up his experiences at FIMS (including a shout-out to yours truly.) Not sure if I mentioned before but while I was at FIMS, someone told me that as soon as you're done the program (really, as soon as you hand in your last assignment because, really, if you make it that far, you aren't going to fail!), it just sort of drops away – all the stress, all the worries, all the politics, all the intensity. Done. Just like that. When I finally handed in my last Advocacy essay, that was my experience too. (Oh, and his tip about the four-month wall calendar? Golden. I seriously did that and it was was perhaps the single best thing I did at FIMS. I still have it around here somewhere – I want to get it framed someday!)

I think I got that wall calendar tip from your UWO MLIS FAQ (in the Five Minute FIMS Survival Guide). So thanks!
I guess that's why I thought it was such a good idea! 😉
Honestly, I totally forgot that I wrote that!
