I, The Graduating Engineering Student Turned Incidental Writer (twelfth Stride) Basic Premises 2

Foreword

Foreword

This series of articles, on the travails and torments of required writing for school term papers, thesis or dissertation, are purposely taken in the point of view of the student in the graduating or senior years. Hopefully, they reveal how much anguish and agony he goes through in every phase of the activity he is obliged to present, even to defend in front of a panel of peers, prior to receiving his much toiled-for diploma.

Previously

The graduating student is earnestly deep into the project study he previously regarded with antipathy. Through conscious force of habit, he goes back to the fundamental concepts and definitions to preserve his focus.
