This is for a future question. Can you also please add in the comments when in your college career (or in your life, whatever) you discovered The Board and if you've already graduated. Ta heaps, mates!

Freshman year. Oh look I'm young. No, haven't graduated.

I discovered the Board while I was in high school, from my sister who was going to BYU at the time. I haven't graduated yet, but she has.

Ditto, except for my brother, and not my sister.

I discovered it my freshman year of college, and I've graduated. I sometimes read regularly, and sometimes don't read for years. So I wouldn't say I've read for 9 continuous years.

Started reading regularly in 2009, and I hadn't officially graduated yet but I was pretty much done with school.

I'm not sure if you'd call in my Junior year or my Super Sophmore year. But it was in 2004. I graduated in 2007. So yes, I've already graduated.

I discovered the Board in high school (in TX), I think during the summer between Junior and Senior year.

I found the board during my Junior year of college (2008/2009) thanks to being the roommate of a board writer. (oh, and I graduated - 2010)

I think I heard about the Board once freshman year but didn't start reading it until Spring 2011 (right after my sophomore year) when Appleton was a writer. I graduate this spring.

There was no 100 Hour Board when I was at BYU. I heard about it from one of my daughters about 30-35 years after I graduated from BYU.

Sophomore year of college because I was looking for articles about knuckle cracking and arthritis, and it was one of the top results. Graduated years ago, but not from BYU.

I hit the wrong button because I can't do maths. It's been like 7 years.

I discovered it in high school through a friend I met on OpenDiary, way back when that was a thing. It's now been 4 1/2 years since I graduated from college cause I'm just that old.

NerdGirl that's when I started reading, too! Freshman year was 2000-2001 for me, and I found out about the Board from my sister who already was going to BYU. I've been reading on and off ever since.
