As seen at Debbie's, the last word meme. Last night I was revising until 4:00 a.m., and, while I'm sure I'll revise it later, the last word for now is "literacy." I'll try to do better than that. What do you think my last word should be?

Congrats
As long as it's done, the last word doesn't matter. Mine was "discourse," but the internal refrain was donedonedone. Does UMinn do EFT? I hope so.
Harrumph.
No, and I've been complaining about it since 2002 -- assuming you're talking about ETD (Electronic Thesis and Dissertation) submission. But at least I'm pretty sure I don't have to print it out on special archival cotton paper or anything.
a la Jenny,
d'oh.
Of course i meant ETD. Sheesh.
Goes by many names
I figured it would be called different things at different places. At the University of Tennessee, they called it ETD (and they've had that option in place for graduate students since 1998, I believe) and I thought it was just UT's term for it.
Maybe I could petition to do it. I'll have to inquire about the feasibility.
Four years
As long as Minnesota has it four years from now, I'm happy.
When is your defense?
Two Cultures
Or...
"Boo yah."
Congratulations!
I think literacy is great.
shelly
the last word
"Weblogs" or "women," of course.
