4 years ago Thanks Amanda. I merged most of your changes but erred on the side of keeping things generic and encouraging people to rely on policy and their advisor & committee about expectations and guidelines rather than information from other students that may not be accurate for everyone or up to date (e.g. if students took exams or wrote proposals under different rules).
I added a placeholder to link to the full university requirements for thesis committees and added a few minor edits. It may be useful to have a lab repository of past proposals/dissertations for current/future students to reference as they learn to structure their own work.
