Well, here goes nothing!  Late last fall, I applied for the PhD in Public Policy at George Mason University and I recently found out that I was accepted.  So I’ve decided to track my progress through the (hopefully only) four year journey toward earning my PhD.  I start classes this fall, but I’ll be posting some updates between now and then to set the background for what I’m betting will turn out to be a very intense experience.  Come along for the ride!
