Dear friends,

After having spent the last two days more or less living at Kinko's, I finally have in print everything I need to have in print for my senior project. Two enlarged pages mounted on foam core for the presentation next week, three unbound, black-and-white, regular-size copies with fanatically precise margins required by the master's degree committee, and a final bound copy for my own vanity.

The professor for whom I will be working over the summer is firmly behind the idea of trying to get it published and has pledged his support, so that's my main project for the summer.

I have not yet heard from Southern, which promised financial aid bottom-line-type information by "mid-April." We are mid- and I am biting my nails. I'll let you know when I hear.

One paper left that's irritating me because I'm having a hard time getting a handle on it, and four incidental papers, are all that now stand between May 19 and me. The end is near.

Grace and peace,
Beth
