Colleagues,
Please join me in congratulating Anita Prest on two counts: First, she has successfully defended her Ph.D. dissertation proposal for the members of her doctoral committee (Dr. Scott Goble, supervisor, Dr. Linda Farr Darling, and Dr. Marie McCarthy) on March 28, 2013, having previously passed her comprehensive examinations in July 2012, and now advanced to candidacy. Second, she is serving as one of the two university graduate student representatives on the President’s Search Committee to appoint a new Dean of the UBC Faculty of Graduate Studies. Both these achievements are noteworthy.
Hearty congratulations, Anita.
Best, Peter
