the hand of the diligent shall rule….

Tomorrow is the TQE. All the first year’s are waiting with baited breath to take the qualifying examination that will determine if we in fact are “qualified” to be here, if we’ve mastered the basics of electrical engineering and are ready to move on in pursuit of the MS/PhD here. I decided to make a return to my blog tonight because I heard a pretty profound quote at church on Sunday which made me think about the TQE in a new light. The minister spoke of a psalm I had never heard before, it said “the hand of the diligent shall rule…” I do no believe that it is strictly a Christian principle, so I just wanted to encourage everyone who is taking the exam tomorrow. We have studied, taken practice exams, asked questions, sat in on undergraduate classes, spent hours in the library, student center, our offices and else where reviewing what we learned in four years of undergrad. So let’s just let the laws of the universe prove themselves true. Our diligent hands shall rule tomorrow….

Best wishes everyone!
