Early December Update! - 6 December 2008, 10:22 am
I'm trying to keep one message coming out of theoryofpaul per month. So here's the installment for "early December".
My dissertation looks reasonably good, and I am spending lots of time trying to get the footnotes and bibliography in shape. I must have a final, approved, bound copy into Eastman by 27 February.
Next semester, I'll still be teaching at Temple, but instead of continuing the music history classes I'll be teaching non-majors. Massive budget cuts at Temple have hit, but fortunately I escaped the most blunt blow possible.
I have about a month of free time to finish revising the dissertation -- no teaching at Temple at all from 20 December to 20 January. That time gap is truly a blessing -- and wonder of wonders, I will actually get PAID in both December and January! It's great news, and during that time I can get this dissertation polished up very nicely.
That's all for now!
