Dissertation "passed."

Please accept my congratulations, as well, Bill... I mean, Dr. Grover.

You earned it. I have also enjoyed our discussions here and elsewhere and look forward to more.

I envy you, but am enjoying my own studies too much to want to trade places. Maybe in a few years we can take turns calling each other "Doctor."

God Bless,
clint

Thanks Rich. I wasn't quite as confident as you were about my 'passing.' I thought my work should pass because I've made myself familiar with the literature and issues . I thought that my product equaled in general that literature, and interacted with it, and addressed those issues. I thought that it further did so in the course of defending my thesis in a manner not before done.

Also I hired a local , informal reader to read the chapters. He opined that my dissertation fell into the perimeters of doc work . He is published in the field, is a local prof of NT, and has his doc from DTS. Still I nevertheless had some fear that for whatever reason I would not pass. So, I'm very relieved.

I certainly will try to devise a way to make the dissertation in some form available. You know how I just cannot keep my opinions to myself

 

And I to you, Bill. Your example is one of the things that keeps me going.

 

Good job!!!

Dr. Grover,

Very good job. You are a fine person and very intelligent as well.

I only wish I was as talented as you are!!

Congrats on your achievment.

Thanks for some of the education that you have given my on few occassions.

Re: Good job!!!

 

Bill - I know that it's been a long road but I never doubted that you'd reach your goal.
Congratulations!

My sincere congratulations to my friend, Dr. William Grover!

Hope I have the opportunity to read your magnum opus someday!

 

Congrats, Bill. How does it feel now that you have jumped through the final hoop?

Good Luck, my friend, Howard.

 

Fed, Jack, Jimmy, Howard

Thank you for the congrats and well wishes.

 

Hey Dr. Grover!!!! That is so awesome.

Sorry I have been out of cyber space a while with few exceptions that I only found out you passed a day ago since it was posted on the theologyreview forum.

I am so happy for you my brother. In a time, age wise, when many are giving up on their dreams and aspirations, it is so refreshing to see your desire.

 

Thanks Kevin.

Today I got the fax from SA stating what must specifically be done by way of the corrections I mentioned in the orig post. These consist of probably 100- 150 errors in spellings, grammar, footnoting and such. But I have six weeks to attend to these. So should be no prob.

I feel very blessed!

 

Bill,

I have been off the board for several months and decided to check in. One of the first threads I read was the completion of your degree. I am glad that my 1st post in many months is to offer you a well earned congratulatons!!

John

Congratulations and Happy Holidays Bill!!!!!!!
