D-Day

Today is the morning of my defense. My day will start out pretty normally, with some meetings at UNC about a project I am currently working on. Then at noon, I will meet with my committee to talk about the project I have spent the last two years or so working on.

I have prepared a brief powerpoint to highlight aspects of the project, and we will then discuss the 100 plus page document I sent them three weeks ago. The presentation is supposed to be about 10 minutes. It is actually quite hard to pare down 2 years worth of work to 10 minutes. Good thing they also had 100 pages to get the gist.

I will let you know how it all turns out, but overall, I am pretty excited. I anticipate a meeting that is informative and provides some good feedback on the work I have done--feedback that will help me improve it so that I can send it out to journals for publication. Hopefully, the next post you see from me will be written by Dr. Jessica Fitts Willoughby.
