i would like to read this, though i suspect 90% of it would go right over my head

― strongo, Wednesday, 29 November 2006 16:49 (nineteen years ago)

Congratulations, what are you going to do next?

― Jon Williams (ex machina), Wednesday, 29 November 2006 16:54 (nineteen years ago)

Just to give some of you noize duders who may not know some background, but Berkeley's English Department is one of the highest regarded in the USA, tied with Iowa for #1 in the country (currently, not using stale data).

I'm positive that this was no small feat, and Drew being able to juggle his other career of writing for Pitchfork Media allthewhile completing this study is simply flabbergasting.

― Steve Shasta (Steve Shasta), Wednesday, 29 November 2006 17:24 (nineteen years ago)

^^^English Graduate Department^^^

― Steve Shasta (Steve Shasta), Wednesday, 29 November 2006 17:24 (nineteen years ago)

awesome!!!

Berkeley's English Department is one of the highest regarded in the USA, tied with Iowa for #1 in the country

it is, indeed (and it's so rigorous that i know 3 people who've attempted the program and had a breakdown after the first semester).
congrats, drew - hope your period of study was free of psychiatric intervention.

― Lauren (lauren), Wednesday, 29 November 2006 18:22 (nineteen years ago)

post those amazing pictures, share your scans of all those sad people touching their own heads

congratulations, drew

Steve, can you perhaps maybe lay off the nonsequitorial PFork pfisting? & I say this not as a fellow Forker, but as a dude that knows you could do so much better in the ZING dept. if you tried.

(congrats btw Drew!)

― David RER (Frank Fiore), Friday, 1 December 2006 14:36 (nineteen years ago)

suite! congrats!

Dear Mr. David Raposa,

I know that humor doesn't translate particular well on the internet unless it is an inside joke that flies over the majority people's heads, but let's just say that Drew was NOT best known for being a writer for Pitchfork and perhaps he had some other exotic career (in 2 separate interfaces) that consumed quite a bit of his time and energy... do you see where I'm going with this or should I go get the training wheels out of storage?

Thank you!

that a lollipop?

― ian (orion), Saturday, 2 December 2006 04:58 (nineteen years ago)

Yes, at Cal when you file your dissertation at the Graduate Division office they give you a lollipop with a sticker on it that says "PHinisheD" and it has a scholar's cap on it. My friend Erika's theory is that it's the final insult, the best way to infantilize you during your moment of triumph- "here you go, SUCKER"

― Dr. Drew Daniel, PhD, Saturday, 2 December 2006 07:22 (nineteen years ago)

sweet
