College Grad Gets Degree In ‘Scince’

Associated Press

Samantha Knapp won’t be hanging up her college diploma anytime soon - she’s received a bachelor’s in ‘scince.’

Her sheepskin, in fancy script, omits the first “e” from “science.”

Registrar Richard France of Wesley College in Dover said there were three misspelled ‘scince’ diplomas made by Jostens, a Minnesota printing company.

“We do four million diplomas a year. Our accuracy rate is 99.8 percent. But occasionally, there are errors,” said Jostens spokeswoman Cindy Serratore.
