Now at least, hopefully, we're onto the "art" of criticism.Included in a thesis defense, there are three understandings:1. The dissertation committee often offers helpful advice to the candidate;2. The committee never uses degrading terminology such as "moron," "idiot," or anything similar;3. A member of the committee never justifies a criticism of the thesis by resorting to his/her own list of accomplishments and awards.In short -- even when there are strong disagreements -- there is a very strong sense of civility in the process.On Tue, Jan 7, 2014 at 12:56 PM, Randy Little <randyslittle@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:
Umm because defending your work is as much a part of the process as the critique. Thats why when you get a masters degree andrew they have this processes call, " THE DEFENSE OF YOUR THESIS" And who said its nasty and unfair? Its just real.Randy S.
