Congratulations Madeline!

Congratulations go out today to Madeline for passing her dissertation proposal defense today and in doing so once again beating the curse of Shaggy’s.

The title of Madeline’s dissertation is: “Natural Disasters in Latin America: The Role of Disaster Type and Productive Sector on the Urban-Rural Income Gap and Rural to Urban Migration” and after passing she took time to look at the turtles and had lunch at Shaggy’s. Shaggy’s is a cursed restaurant to the unsuspecting PhD student, as on a bright sunny day many, many years ago a group of bright eyed PhD students took in the sights and a lovely meal there. Out of 6 PhD students to have dinner that day, only 3 have survived to tell the tale.

Congrats Madeline!
