Good for Skytech, and others, for doing the right thing and rewarding his inquisitiveness and helping get his career in motion. Dawson College needs to admit they took the wrong stance on this one... Knowing how locks work doesn't suddenly make you a thief or a terrorist, but it sure demonstrates critical thinking skills. (Dawson College could even be using him as an example of a successful education, for their part.)

That is nice to see. He deserved a good place and I'm happy that his future was not ruined.
