I did graduate with a bachelor's degree in civil engineering in 1948.
I think I finally chose the graduate degree in engineering primarily because it only took one year and law school took three years, and I felt the pressure of being a little behind - although I was just 22.
When it came time to go to the University, it was during the war.
I got called back into the Navy during the Korean War.
I stayed in the Navy until July of 1946.
And then, when I went into the Navy, there was no choice. You took about half of the hours during your naval training as naval courses and the other half were engineering.
