    My long-time girlfriend (almost 7 years) and Master of Fine Arts (she just passed her oral defense, so it's in the bag), Jennie Pitts, is featured on the University of Colorado Theatre & Dance Web site in the bottom left, for those interested. A work she choreographed won a regional collegiate modern dance choreography competition, and it will be performed at the Kennedy Center in June. It's a pretty big deal. She also just found out that she won the award for best graduate teacher at the university, which is also quite significant.

    Pfft.. my wife has a Phd in oral defense... ;D

    That's cool Palooka! Give her our congrats. My expertise at the fine art of dancing begins and ends at the 'pole'.

    Nice!

    I've always heard very good things about art majors - and a dancer too - you sly dog you

    Oh, and congrat's on the Ph.D. - those things can be hard to get.

    While a Masters of Fine Arts is a terminal degree, it's not quite a PhD. I'm hoping she puts a hold on her education for awhile now; I'd like to see her more than a few times a year.

    That's great, Palooka! Yeah, how DID you find a lady like that in Reno? That's the $64,000 question here. :-)

    The title of your post evoked other images in my mind. Ones featuring a brass pole.
