It's been a while since I've blogged, as I'm sure many of you already know. It's been a hectic few months, and I'm presently on the edge, waiting to hear back from those graduate schools. I have two rejections (Univ. Colorado Boulder and Louisiana State), but the big edge I'm waiting on is from the University of New Orleans. The graduate coordinator of UNO called me last Thursday to inform me she has a position and a fellowship to offer me, I just need to find an advisor. The man with whom I originally communicated is not a member of the bio dept., and the man he suggested to be my advisor may be retiring in a year or so. She gave me the names of a couple of profs to solicit, so I popped off emails and CVs to both of them just a little while ago. Wish me luck.

I'm off to study for a history exam.
