Wish me luck

today i meet with the IRB - the Board that gives the final approval for my research. i don't have any clue whether these professors will be "friendly" or not - and that makes this much more nerve wracking than the proposal defense where i understood that the dissertation committee is only looking to make the research and dissertation better. the one thing i think i have on my side is that one member of my dissertation committee is actually also on the IRB.

wish me luck. my meeting is at 12:30 today - via ZOOM.

the meeting was a breeze. the chair of the board said everyone on the board had my original document, and the comments and suggestions made by a consultant, and my revised document based on those comments.

the chair asked the board if any of them had questions for me. there were none. i was told i only need to put the actual room on campus of my dissertation chair in two spots.

i expect the letter of approval any day and then i can start my research.
