I call for new custom Title for Vtillion. It must be Dr. Something or other.
"Welcome to the community of scholars" That's how my doctoral defense ended in Spring of 1990. That's a moment you'll remember the rest of your life! Congrats!

Biophysical Chemistry
It is amazing. Now that I have defended I have even MORE work than before. Two publications to submit, a dissertation to edit and preparation for the course I will be teaching this fall. It makes me miss the good old days of undergrad, when graduation was followed by a month of celebrations and sleeping in before moving on to my first job.
It still hasn't really sunk in what I've accomplished. I think it may hit home when I start my teaching job and hear "Dr. Davis" or "Professor Davis" on a daily basis. Here in the chem dept at PSU, i'm still just "Ron" to everybody, I'm still working on the same projects and it feels very familiar.
Anywho.... I can't wait to see what is next. :thumb:
Yea right, you couldn't decide Biology, physics or chemistry and now we have to call you doctor ... :laugh: ...
Congrads anyway ... now why dont you take your undecisive ass and do something with your life. :laugh:
Cool.
Srinath.
Dr.please make fun of me :thumb:
^^^^^^^
:thumb:
Doctor eh? That is a huge achievment, congrats!
Congrats man! So you start work right away? No graduation trip in between? I'd say you've earned it... :dunno_white:
Just so that I can get another data point for my survey, how many times during your doctoral program did you SERIOUSLY consider quitting? Aaaaaand... what made you stay?
he didnt want us to flame him :laugh:
