meeting 2
met with margie. talked about:
- committee members: must go ask A. and S. if they're ok with being on my committee. maybe G..
- schedule: must finish the thing by beginning of november.
- scope of the research.
- research methods: interview, questionnaires, observations, focus groups, blah blah.
- the education and the law class that i'll take in the spring and how to integrate that into my research: legal issues, discrimination, ethics, etc.
- how we're going to work: expectations (work, meetings, emails, drafts, schedule, etc.).
- beautiful roses that she had received.
looking good but hard. still feeling ok. a little less stressed out now that i know a little more about how this is going to work.

Things To RememberWhen picking people, here are some important things:
You want people who can work well together.
People's reputations don't really matter. It's more important that you find people willing to give you time.
Not everyone wants to read chapters. Some prefer to read the whole thing at the end.
Even if people aren't reading chapters, you should use them as resources. Send emails, show up at office hours, ask for good references to integrate, advice about x and y.
Related to the latter, you are not limited to people on your committee, as far as resources. You should talk to lots of people to get advice. Faculty and others around campus can help you even if they aren't on your committee.
And never forget this: everyone works for you and you are in charge. If you have problems with someone who doesn't get along with you or doesn't seem to be actually taking an interest in your project, then you are free to fire them and hire someone new. In fact, you should never put up with abuse or people who don't do any work. You have all the power on this thing.
