Rae Lewis explained" As an intelligent third year student it might be useful to know that one does not 'undergo' a dissertation."That would surely depend on whether Emma was enjoying the experience of compiling this particular dissertation or not, surely ?Thus while might look forward to a visit by particularrelatives over Christmas, one might dread having to *undergo* the experience of having to be nice to others. As you say a subject like like Geography opens up a whole range of possibilities. Possibly Emma's fellow students were tasked with studying transport systemsin the Seychelles or in Hawaii maybe sponsored by some airline, whereas because Emmas tutor happened to have been born in Chiswick she's been tasked with having to study Turnham Green instead.And so at a guess she's probably not best suited to a career in public relations. Or put another way, both the compiling of the disseration itself and being closely examined on it afterwards, represent a trial students need to *undergo* in order to obtain a degree.Which isn't to say that others, probably a minoritymight not positively relish the challenge.michael adams...
