I am a doctor now! (well, sort of)

I don't see any copper caring less whether you have a PhD or not. Having not been through it themselves they would most likely think your some rich toffee nosed snot trying to impress with your self importance.

Congrats on your achievement Michgal, and good luck with yours Brodie.
Can I get a doctorate on line? Where? how much?

 

I recall reading a story about Alexander Graham Bell doing something similar. He and a house guest were discussing the theoretical impossibiity of cats turning in midair, lacking an ethereal fulcrum. So, they gathered up all the cats in the house, brought them to the lower balcony, and let the fur fly.

 

Congratulations Dr Michgal!

 

Congrats, well done!!

Wayne

 

Finally a use for cats.

 

No, I believe it's Schrödinger's cat. That's bio physics at its finest.

So did you make fish night lights, as Sheldon did on The Big Bang Theory?

Tom

 

oh ya!! that cleared it up!!

congrats anyway. it is a monumental achievement
!

 

If the job market doesn't pan out, we can always post a thread: "Who want to marry Michgal007 and keep her in the country."

Hmmm? I don't get it, what does a visa have to do with .... oh, not a citizen. Never mind.

Um .... maybe try Canada? Usually easier to enter with an advanced degree

 

This is late; but congratulations to you!! I know the hard work and dedication it takes to get through school. You deserve a huge pat on the back.

 

I believe every woman should come often. Congratulations. Doctor, it hurts when I do this: :rockon:.

 

Congrats, Michigal007!

I'll admit I had no clue what Biophysics was when you posted this thread, but I'm in our PriusChat Folding@Home team, and today when I was browsing the Folding@Home community forum, I noticed that Dr. Vijay Pande, who heads the Folding@Home project at Stanford University is also chairman of the Biophysics Department.

So I guess I've been a volunteer in Biophysics for the past couple of years without even knowing it!

 

Belated Congrats Michgirl! I recommend celebrating for forty days and forty nights, or forty nights and rest during the days. You deserve it!

COOL!!! :thumb: :first: :whoo:

I just finished my Masters in Management, and am contemplating going for a PhD in Management. With the Masters I consider myself a Management Scientist (I already consult and work for a major aerospace company) but the PhD would add an air of legitimacy to the consulting that even the Masters doesn't offer.

In your field being a Doctor is paramount. In mine it's less defined. However, I seem to have all this time on my hands now that I've finished, so why not?

Wasn't it cool to wear the "top of the line" robe for commencement? A good friend of mine is now Chair of the Geosciences Department at FHSU. I was at his graduation from CU for his PhD and it was MIGHTY impressive! Spend some time patting yourself on the back and feeling superior! You EARNED it!

 

you're wearing the awesome robe! yay! that must have felt great.
