Deathmatch Tournament -- Round Two, Part One in General

saunders La Canaliste Member # 5563	written Wednesday, May 23 2007 07:25 Profile #90 In some countries (eg France) it is customary to defend one's thesis in public, while in others (eg UK) it is a private misery. In some UK universities even the PhD supervisor is excluded, and the student defends in front of the examiners all alone... It is a check that the student is at least acquainted with the contents of the thesis, and can demonstrate that they more or less understand it (to show that the student has not simply presented work performed and written up by some third party). In the UK it is very difficult to fail at the point of defending the thesis: the supervisor should not allow a thesis that is unpassable to be submitted. In general it is also impossible here to pass without some corrections or adjustment being demanded by the examiners: it is a form of machismo on their part. (This can take the form of "correcting" the use of colons or semicolons, if the examiners can't find anything else.) Thus the result is almost always pass with minor revisions or pass with major revisions. -------------------- I am a mater of time and how . Deep down, you know you should have voted for Alcritas!

saunders La Canaliste Member # 5563	written Tuesday, May 22 2007 02:24 Profile #79 With humble deference to Kel... Doctor is mediaeval Latin for "teacher", from Latin docere, to teach. Thus there was no degree of doctorate at that time, but simply the recognition in a Latin-using literate population that the "doctor" had knowledge to share, and teach, to others who wished to learn, or study from him. It's pretty similar to somebody becoming a guru. -------------------- I am a mater of time and how . Deep down, you know you should have voted for Alcritas!

Since then there is no pretence of democracy, and it all takes place in the smoke-filled gloom of the Moderator forum. That's why we keep having to replace the Kwilts.

What have you been reading lately? in General
saunders La Canaliste Member # 5563	written Wednesday, May 9 2007 08:02 Profile #386 That rings a bell, and I have an odd feeling that it is an Asimov book, but no guarantees. I have just read "the Book Thief" by Markus Zusak, which is a beautifully written story about a girl living near Munich in the 1930s/40s. It is narrated by Death, and I could not put it down. Also just read "Two Caravans" by Marina Lewycka who wrote "A History of Tractors in Ukrainian". The first one was good, the second magnificent, and also consciousness raising about the lives of immigrant workers in the UK. -------------------- But it's the unsquandered youth that is truly wasted.
