' This degree means,' firstly that. the. -person has *Studied for -4 years in University and earned - a ;Bach= elor's degree in . his chosen field. The next step is a Master's. de- gree. which • requires from 1 to . 2 years of study and also original research written into a thesis. The final step ' is the Pii,D, which re- quires further years of ` study, teaching and ':some highly :percep- tive ' research ending in a. publish- ed thesis. To be accepted this. thesis must :add worthwhile new knowledge • and research. data for •the whole scientific world in the • .particular area of specialization. A person who has earned a' Ph.D. from a recognized Univer- sity. has' 'developed a self discipline and • a sense: of purpose that is indeed a tribute to that person. In terms of intelligence and a sacrifice to years of hard work, the many other directions of life demand just as much, and so the person who is a success in what eyerhis chosen work happens to. '{ be is. a .credit~ to himself,' his family, and his comm ty w�i But we just have to givehave-to-give-a-spc 1 nal word of .praise •to. the other "Macks" of • our area =- in par- ticular Alex 1VMlntyre and 'Helen, 'Salkeld for in their, world, so far .from ours, they have gained an eminence, and are making Con- tributions of ` which'although the rest of us are not a - part' of and . perhaps cannot even' comprehend, we are, immensely proud.
