Sorry everyone. I cannot pass this up.

The intern seminar was yesterday (and my piece was credentialing in
its various forms) and it was reiterated the importance of getting
all your "stuff" done while you are here in the program at Miami:
thesis, national certification (NCSP), and Ohio Licensure. Things
happen in life and the path one is absolutely convinced of and are
certain to follow right now frequently has detours.  I received an
email from a former student after the seminar and think it worthwhile
to share with you and to reiterate the importance of getting stuff
done while you are HERE...........
