Sisyphusian Thesis
So I was told to go to the graduate coordinator because no one will be my Thesis adviser.
The Graduate Adviser says, "Go ask this professor here, as well as this professor (who is head of the department). He might be available to advise you."
"But he's going to tell me he's too busy and to see you."
"It can't hurt.
Fast forward to the meeting with him. "Yeah I'm too busy."
"I told her you'd say that."
The other professor is also too busy.
This means the Next step is to sit down with the Department Chair and the Graduate Coordinator and figure out what to do next. Pretty much it means they have to approach the Faculty and say "Hey no one will work with this kid. Anyone have any project he can do?"
I was going to do a research project on people's attitudes towards the disabled, but the project wasn't approved, so I'm writing a paper on the topic. I'm looking through various studies, and I start finding a LOT of studies dealing with the sexuality of the disabled. "What do people think about the sexuality of the disabled" "What do doctors thing about it" "What do PARENTS thing about it". It's as though there was a sudden, very strong interest by researchers in who the deaf and blind want to have sex with.
Even funnier - the best study I saw involved the response of dolphins to swimming with the disabled.
