Dr. Neil Hair

The Musings Of A Professor Of Marketing.

One of the proudest days of my life.

Drs Hair making for interesting social conventions since 2007On Monday I got to watch my wife graduate with her PhD in management at Sheffield University in England. It was without doubt one of the best moments of my life. Its hard for others who haven't been through the PhD process to truly appreciate the utter madness, sadness, emptiness and all the other nesses that go with that process unless of course you've been a part of that journey with them (her mum for instance). To finally walk the stage and have the degree conferred is exhilarating. Id go as far to say it makes up for all the angst you go through in not quite knowing – even up to the moment of viva (oral examination) whether or not you might fail or pass. I saw my wife go through that madness just as she had seen me go through it – and the remarkable thing is – WERE STILL TALKING TO EACH OTHER!! Rose was one of just three people walking around in red amongst the 400 other people graduating (all wearing black). She looks – as Im sure you will agree – absolutely fabulous! Go Dr Hair!! Rose starts teaching Organizational Behavior at RIT's Saunders College of Business in the Fall.
