Towering 10

 Recently I was featured as an Alumni of University of Technology, Sydney.  As my wife, son and daughter had all completed multiple degrees at this institution -- it was somewhat embarrassing for me having only completed a Postgraduate Software Engineering diploma.


The article was called 'Towering 10', and yes I can be described as 'tall' when I lived in Japan; but by this definition it was unusual company for me !

towering 

1. very tall; lofty

2. outstanding, as in importance or stature

3. (prenominal) very intense a towering rage
