May 12, 1999

Aside from teaching classes and preparing my final exams, there was significant thing I did today.

I was part of a doctoral thesis committee, and our doctoral candidate was due to defend his thesis on the properties of the Multiverse.

Our candidate was Conrad Bennish, Jr.

He explained his thesis, and then we asked him questions. I even brought up a few points.

I have to write that Mr. Bennish acquitted him well. Despite his unorthodox character, he was a brilliant student, on par with Quinn Mallory. It was no wonder that the Oversight Commission unanimously approved his hire.
