Bird) Subject: TR's proposal Hey, all, Just read TR's proposal for his continued involvement in socgrad. I think he's come up with an excellent solution. I'm especially looking forward to the home page! On my computer at work I have saved messages from earlier this month which I've been meaning to answer---one about studying alternative healing, etc. within sociology, and one about the problem/challenge of a committee that expects/requires the use of positivistic research methods that are completely at odds with the complexity of the subjectand with your own values/beliefs. I will have to print those out and bring them home, where I have some peace and quiet and can write whole sentences without someone interrupting me. Sorry I didn't respond sooner... Now I gotta get back to data entry---working on my dissertation during evenings and weekends is CRAZY! Best to all, Donna Donna C. Bird Research Associate Edmund S.
