'Drunken Pirate' sues school that nixed degree - Education - MSNBC.com: Woman lost teaching degree over Myspace picture showing her drinking
"MILLERSVILLE, Pa. - A woman denied a teaching degree on the eve of graduation because of a MySpace photo has sued the university.
Millersville University instead granted Stacy Snyder a degree in English last year after learning of her Web-published picture, which bore the caption 'Drunken Pirate.'
'I dreamed about being a teacher for a long time,' said Snyder, 27, who now works as a nanny.
The photo, taken at a 2005 Halloween party, shows Snyder wearing a pirate hat while drinking from a plastic "Mr. Goodbar" cup. It was posted on her own MySpace site.
