I took my exams, had my thesis defense, got responses from Gerald Stern, and turned in a copy of my thesis to the graduate college for review purposes.
Gerald Stern was really tough, but that meant a lot to me. There were words he circled and just wrote, “no.” Ha ha. That’s why I chose him. I thought he’d be that direct. Anyway, because he’s so unafraid to write down what he really thinks, when he complimented me on successful poems, I felt it was genuine.
Oh, also, I got my regalia last Thursday, and graduation is May 9th! I’m sure I’ll have separation anxiety soon!
