Congratulations for real. I was gonna say when I read your last post, the pass/fail ratio of this is pretty intense. Back in my undergrad program at Baylor, cause we were all fancy-pants University Scholars, we all had to write Senior Theses, and I am sure you remembered me bitching and moaning about thesis for all of senior year.
