The fact that Yale University would even consider accepting this as being of doctoral quality is quite disappointing. Out of curiosity alone I will look at the references she has utilized in making such outrageous accusations.<br /><br />Joseph P.

The only reason her incoherent ramblings have seen the light of day is that whatever troubles she is suffering have led her to post bizarre demonological conspiracy theories on her web page. Her students made sure that her temporary indiscretion is perpetuated so that all may laugh at the freak show.<br /><br />I don't agree with a word that she said, but I think she deserves some mercy. She's already destroyed her academic career - I don't think it's useful to immortalize her breakdown.<br /><br />Lots of smart people at Yale. Some of them are mentally ill. Laughing at her for no other crime than being semi-publicly crazy strikes me as cruel.<br /><br />Bro. Mike from ConnecticutBro.

When I _proposed_ my own dissertation research plan at NYU, it had to be approved by a committee of 5 faculty members, including my committee and two outside readers from my department. I can't imagine that Yale is that much less rigorous than NYU [ :-) ]. <br /><br />The length of the dissertation is not so suspicious to me; lately, it seems, people are getting by with more lightweight dissertations. (Hers is only an 88-page .pdf.) But still, I do have to wonder if this is a seminar paper, or a journal article manuscript. <br /><br />The weirdness of it all makes me suspect that this was never passed before a dissertation committee at Yale. Could this be a hoax, or evidence of, ahem, a paranoid process in the technical sense?Mark Koltko-Riverahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11173090767545559729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25683662.post-26647265537835705952012-01-30T13:53:37.794-05:002012-01-30T13:53:37.794-05:00Awfully short for a PhD thesis.

We're normally rather staid and conservative up here in Connecticut, so our crazies have to work overtime to make up the balance. <br /><br />Of course, Yale is in New Haven, where the rumours started that the <a href="http://ctfreemasons.net/index.php/masonic-youth/ctchip.html" rel="nofollow">Masonic Child ID Program</a> <i>actually implanted RFID tracking chips in children</i>.Tom Accuostihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07005315193581153959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25683662.post-86018175991477298082012-01-28T03:20:48.853-05:002012-01-28T03:20:48.853-05:00Ironically I decided today to start researching fo...Ironically I decided today to start researching for my blog a post on the psychology and ideology of anti-Masons.

The amazing this is that she was able to get so far as to be in a position to write a thesis at Yale. How did she ever get that far? It seems like now is as good a time as there has ever been to be "spreading light." I cringe to think that some other school might be all to happy to pick her up after all of this.GohfRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17417955887426212083noreply@blogger.com
