I was actually going to comment (or more or less, rant) about the "business suit/Trump" thing. That's just.... yeah, just, NO. Most of the rich and famous didn't even GO to college. Business has got nothing to do with being a college graduate. When I think "college", I think about lawyers, doctors, psychiatrists, teachers, or a career that requires more than just a high school diploma and even a Bachelor's degree. Funny thing, I actually posted something just like this concerning Frankie's college education and degree on another thread. I forgot which one though. :p

I think Frankie's age (22) combined with the term "major" and the implication that her graduation was recent are strong arguments that she's been written as a college graduate.
I've never seen "Frankie My Dear", but I don't know just how much more obvious a line like, "Wow, I heard that's a really tough major" and "So, what do you do now that you've graduated?" has to be. These are the words we all use when referring to a college education. I don't get how some people think that graduating college at the age of 21 is being too soon. I'll be turning 21 next May, about a week after my college graduation. I'd say Frankie indeed finished college, though at her age, she couldn't have obtained more than a Bachelor's.
