[Air-l] FW: Short list of new PhD's for AoIR Newsletter

Mon Jun 4 02:09:21 PDT 2007

Hi folks,

How about creating a list of 'soon-to-be-completed'
PhDs who, at the moment, are still suffering through
the process (like yours truly) and hope to complete
the thesis within a year (I hope).

Cheers!

Peter
