He did it! After all the hard work, John defended his doctoral dissertation on Monday. In front of his committee, colleagues, students, cohort members, and friends, he explained his research and answered some thoughtful questions before getting "grilled" by his committee behind closed doors.
With some moderate coaching, the first thing Cally said to her dad upon seeing him after the defense was, "Congratulations Dr. Abbott". It pretty much brought tears to his eyes.
We're both so proud of you, Dr. Abbott! We look forward to spending all sorts of family time together now that your eyes don't have to be glued to that enormous computer screen.
