It's Done!!!!!



Meet Doctor Smith!!!

3 years of class work.
2 years of dissertation work.
Hours and hours of corrections.
Final dissertation-319 pages.
1 1/2 hours defending his work to his
committee members in Nebraska.

Successful defense.
Graduation paperwork filled out.
Mick is relaxed and all smiles!
After Mick completed all of the paperwork they gave him this button.
When Kaylie's friend saw the button she said, "That's all you have to show for it?"
That's right!
Mick is feeling a great sense of accomplishment right now.
He is also amazed that he finished it.
We all knew he could!!!



Mick went to the University of Nebraska
this week to defend his dissertation.
After a lot of hard work he now has his
Ph.D. in Educational Studies, Teaching Curriculum and Instruction.

This is the title of his dissertation:
Understanding Obstacles to Developing and
Implementing Pedagogy and the Teaching Emphasis
among Daily Volunteer Seminary Teachers in the Church Educational System.

We are all so proud of him and this great accomplishment.
We will go to Nebraska in August for the official Graduation.

Go Huskers!!!
