			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;ve finished all my requirement toward the ALM in IT except for my thesis.  I had a thesis proposal approved and about a year later I was assigned a director.  Unfortunately my topic was irrelevant after waiting a year as I had already completed the project on my own to solve a business problem I had.  I wrote a new thesis proposal and submitted it in June 2006, when I wrote back to check on the status in August, I was told the proposal was fine, but they were still looking for a director.<br />
Fortunately this time my topic isn&#8217;t something I&#8217;m going to complete unless it is for the thesis, so I don&#8217;t mind waiting.  In one way I&#8217;m enjoying the delay because it means I still have access to the Harvard Library online resources.  It is very nice to have easy access to all the journal articles.</p>
<p>On the other hand, I am interested in finishing the thesis up sometime in the near future.</p>
