Clerical Work

I've got a full committee! I heard back today from another professor saying no, and stomped downstairs to complain to the professor running the thesis projects. He wasn't in his office, so I spent a few minutes yelling at Thesis Advisor M. After I had cooled down a little bit, she realized we hadn't spoken to a professor that taught here last year, who has worked with small-scale architecture (and incidentally is interested in my favorite modelling program, Maya). Thesis Advisor M called her right then and there, she accepted, and now Big D is part of the team! I'm so pleased: she's very outspoken and creative, and will be a great addition.

The committee is as follows: Thesis Advisor M, Big D, The Flame and R the Engineer. I'm really happy to have all of them. I sent them an e-mail with the following dates for meetings, but may have to move it around a bit to accommodate everyone.
  • January 31
  • February 21 (During reading week)
  • March 14
  • April 4

That leaves a week between the second meeting and my midterm review, and four weeks between the final meeting and my presentation. Somehow booking meetings makes this thesis thing feel a lot more real.
