The Hobbit Hole XXVII - And there are many paths to tread...
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 01/16/2006 6:56:15 AM PST by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

And there are many paths to tread

New verse:

Upon the hearth the fire is red,
Beneath the roof there is a bed;
But not yet weary are our feet,
Still round the corner we may meet
A sudden tree or standing stone
That none have seen but we alone.
Tree and flower and leaf and grass,
Let them pass! Let them pass!
Hill and water under sky,
Pass them by! Pass them by!

Still round the corner there may wait
A new road or a secret gate,
And though we pass them by today,
Tomorrow we may come this way
And take the hidden paths that run
Towards the Moon or to the Sun.
Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe,
Let them go! Let them go!
Sand and stone and pool and dell,
Fare you well! Fare you well!

Home is behind, the world ahead,
And there are many paths to tread
Through shadows to the edge of night,
Until the stars are all alight.
Then world behind and home ahead,
We’ll wander back to home and bed.
Mist and twilight, cloud and shade,
Away shall fade! Away shall fade!
Fire and lamp, and meat and bread,
And then to bed! And then to bed!

We got an email from the DEAN!!! She's "interested in the situation" and wants Steve to write an letter documenting about what has happened so she can respond!

This could be a good thing!

Or this could be rocking the boat.

If the Dean wrote TO Steve, it could well be BOTH! Sounds like a GOOD thing to me!

Ok...I just got off the phone with Steve and he said it's a request to take the two hours this semester. But I think in the request, we should also try to NOT take the 2 hours this semester and have his graduation date retroactive to December as soon as his thesis is approved and defended as we were originally led to believe.

It's going to be hard copy, delivered in person on Friday.

Yes, indeed!

Appears the Snarky Secretary told the Dean and the Dean now has taken an interest and is actually trying to help...at least to make sure Steve gets the 2 hours he has to have to graduate this semester.

....so you wait until Steve gets his degree and call the Dean to tell her what a sham and fraud her department is. In a nice way, of course. :)

It's at some big ol' hospital, and I think it's tech support.

Cool stuff.
