    if you could write a doctorial thesis about anything at all, what would it be?

    mine would be: "public transportation, based on environmentaly harmonious tecnology in a potlatching economy with nonhierarchal social organization"

    (something i seriously doubt i'll ever get arround to doing, but a fun thought)

    phd not phud

    higher education levels essentially, you have to research something/create a new concept or theory or something along those lines in teh area of your subject, ie if I were to do a doctoral thesis on physical anthropology I'd likely be doing research on bones, bone morphology, how bones are affected by beign buried in different kinds of sediment (dirt), etc.

    but that's not what I'm majoring in and I'm not sure I'll ever go for a phd. I'm gonna go for a second undergrad (bachelors's degree) before I worry about grad stuff, let alone phd's. Assuming I get this degree I'm working at now, ugh.
