  • Four New Doctorates!

    The rainy spring weather has seemingly produced a bumper crop of new doctorates in the department. Paul Croll, Rehema Kilonzo, Ronda Copher, and Heather Hlavka all successfully passed their dissertation defenses between the months of May and June, 2008. In the fall, Croll is heading to Augustana College, Hlavka is heading to Marquett, Kilonzo is returning to Tanzania to go on the market, and Copher will continue her work in the private sector. The department is exceedingly proud of all four students and wishes them well!
