Fellow Jets Fans, I need help with my dissertation.

[mBLASzKa]

Hello fellow Jets fans,

 

I have never actually posted in the forum, but often view the various topics. I am writing to you for your assistance for my dissertation. My study is about various athletes and how we view them on Twitter. The Jets athlete that I am using is Eric Decker. If you follow him on Twitter please take a moment to view to fill out the survey. Also, if you know more Jets fans (or other fans) who follow Eric Decker please feel free to send it to them as well. The link is below:

The world needs more ditch diggers son.

[Lizard King]

Please tell me you're joking.

[JetsFanInDenver]

Decker's wife would make better dessertation.

[mBLASzKa]

haha. Well I'm not sure if this is support or what! 

[New York Mick]

I've never seen Deckers twitter but Holmes dad might of ran at Preakness.

When Eric Decker tweets, I call it Gritter.

I assure you, this board is filled with plenty of dissertations for you to reference.  A quick look around this thread should start you off with some noteworthy authors.

What has so-called higher education come to?  You should be spending your time smoking pot and guzzling beer, not wasting it on this nonsense.

[faba]

Is  a dissertation the same as a thesis. I am confused.

That's undergrad. Your graduate years are for digesting a completely unreasonable amount of literature while not having time for anything else because faculty are incapable of efficiently reconciling recent work with old work, so you're just given everything because who gives a sh*t, they had the same thing done to them.

In some parts of the world yes. In the U.S. the former is almost always for a doctorate while the latter is generally for a bachelor's or master's degree.

[FloridaJetsFan]

Can't believe Crusher went all Judge Smails on him.

[Klecko73isGod]

I think you would feel better if you actually did the work yourself instead of relying on us to do it for you, you lazy bastard.

Thanks- my BBA and MBA was money well spent

[ZachEY]

What exactly does one get a doctorate in after one completes a dissertation on twitter?

[Larz]

following jocks on twitter is a gigantic waste of time

 

the end

[CrazyCarl40]

I had dissertation once. Spent the whole day on the terlet.

[faba]

No offense but pretty lame for any guy to follow Eric Decker on Twitter

[Lizard King]

It's pretty lame for any guy to be on Twitter, period. I did it for free agency and promptly stopped

Crazy isn't it? The amount of dissertations on social media the past couple years has exploded.

I had a 65+ year old Oncologist tell me that my generation is pathetic for how much we utilized the internet and electronics and back in her day they studied their text-books for 12 hours+ every day. Because apparently working efficiently and digesting the same material in less time is somehow a bad thing. We should instead rely on outdated texts and styles of learning, because they walked up hill both ways to the hospital. *And this isn't even to mention that 50% of what's currently on the boards, wasn't even discovered until she was out of school. The disconnect between older professors/doctors and their students is ridiculous and is such a disadvantage to students when they're being taught by people who refuse to adapt.

It depends on the field. In LA much of the disconnect comes from the fact that the best work has come really only over the past few decades, but older faculty still want to make sure that the prior is still preserved. And it's fine, but when most of those books can be summed up nicely in a lit review blurb, it's annoying getting assigned the whole thing.

That's very true. I have my boards in two months, so everything I say, do or write is going to be drenched in bitterness. Honestly, starting the 28th, I probably won't be on teh interwebz until my exam is done in June.

Oh yes you will. You'll start out very committed, but within a week you'll be back. They always come back.

How do you justify the cost of the degree? What is the plan?

[jack48]

Hey!  Do your own homework.

Le sigh. I wish you weren't right. This single exam basically decides whether I can do surgery or I'm stuck taking temperatures rectally on some Amish settlement in central PA.  It hasn't even been a half hour and I'm already admitting defeat.  I have the attention span of a goldfish swimming in a bowl of redbull, I should consider medicating myself like half the other adderal-infused graduate students.
