I have defended my dissertation, and filed it with the University. It’s formatting has been approved by the appropriate people, and the Dean of Graduate Studies has approved my final paperwork. I believe that officially, I have now completed my Ph.D. Graduation is June 22nd, and my parents, in-laws, and brother-in-law (and of course Kristina) will all be in attendance as my advisor hoods me.
Now it is time for a few brief moments of relaxation and a vacation, then it’s time to move on and get started on my career.
