ACKNOWLEDGMENT
When you write your acknowledgements, write an exhaustive list of all the people
you wish to thank for helping or collaborating with you on your thesis; then organize
them, beginning with those who helped you with the product (the actual writing of the
dissertation itself) the most. You may even want to say some words about the people
who helped you in finding the sources for your thesis: the librarian’s knowledge and
patience cannot be overestimated. Do not overlook those (perhaps before you came to
Georgia Tech) who helped you to gain practical experience. These people may have
been paramount in their contribution to what you achieved at Tech. At the end, most
writers thank those who lent moral/emotional support. Of course, they are often parents,
