Degree Project: Check! (mostly)
Context: At Burlington College, seniors are required to complete what they call a degree project. This is essentially a senior thesis. It has to be an original work (i.e. not a research paper) of 40-60 pages in length. It takes an entire academic year to complete, being broken up into Degree Project I in the fall and Degree Project II in the spring.
I just finished the first draft of my degree project! Woohoo! It weighs in at exactly 58 pages in length. I just printed out four copies and I now have a very satisfying heap of paper beside me. It will now be reviewed by a panel of three faculty, I will make revisions, and then the final version will be turned in by May 1.
This is far and away the largest thing I have ever written. And I think it’s pretty good, to boot. I’m quite proud of myself.
Graduation in thirty-two days!
