Congrats, Doctor. What was your research on? And what happens next?

5/17/2013 4:43:37 PM

Congrats man!

What was the thesis

5/17/2013 4:45:10 PM

Chemistry ( Organic Chemistry with Steve Martin)

Doing a post doc in Germany, then I don't know what. Hopefully get a job somewhere in Europe so that I can travel, be an expat, and the wife can I have a few more kids.

dude, white guilt is getting an MS in african american studies and teaching in the inner city.

Just stating facts about cultural differences is what happens when you are not raised in the burbs.

There were some terrible moments in this past 9 months or so. I am glad that is all over.

You know who will never make this thread? Shoot.

5/18/2013 3:33:24 PM

Lots of ppl blow off graduation, but walking across that stage feels good. I'm walking around Austin now in full regalia.

5/18/2013 5:43:36 PM

Did you pay for your Ph.D or did you get enough assistantship money etc to pay for it?

5/18/2013 6:16:28 PM

^^i didn't walk for mine cause I graduated during the summer.

^he got paid to go to grad school through research or teaching assistantships. Science based graduate programs worth a damn are all like that.

5/18/2013 6:47:39 PM

Congratulations!!!

5/18/2013 7:03:30 PM

So glad I don't have to deal with this shit anymore

What I recall from some of the outfits worn on Sixth Street, that wouldn't even raise an eyebrow!

Congratulations on your successful defense.

^ For what it's worth, as I look back on my college days, I now realize that you were a good teacher. I cursed your name daily while I struggled through Organic Chemistry, but now that I'm using it in my profession, I appreciate the challenge. Don't ever let the haters get you down. That's all.
