    I'm going to be a PhD!!

    Well, you know, after I finish the program. I just found out I got admitted to a PhD program at the University of Denver for next fall, so I'm very excited! I completed my masters in education in December so this degree would be in Curriculum and Instruction.

    It's not set in stone yet because I need to find out what I am offered in terms of financial aid, but pretty sure! (And here we were thinking of moving to Memphis for a job...probably going to stay here now!)

    I just wanted to share cause I am so happy- it's something I have always wanted to do!

    Congrats! I'm rather fond of DU--I was an instructor at the law school for several years. I hope you get a generous financial aid offer.

    Good luck! It's a ton of work, but definitely worth it.
