I know some colleges might not allow it, but perhaps others would?

Shya,
I've just accessed ProQuest/UMI online Submission, only to find that there are only a handful of institutions that subscribe and whose students may submit electronically; CSUSM is not one of them. Even if it were, the site says theses will take longer than 8 weeks to process. So again, we are waiting for the CSUSM and Library of Congress loaner copies, which are "at the bindery."
As mentioned regarding Khem's interest, I do have a velo-bound copy I would be willing to mail you, with return packaging and at your expense. Let me know and I will get that one back from a local friend who's reading it; snail mail address please.
Khem, what did you find out about the Columbia University copy of my thesis when you went down to visit your cousin Jonathan?
Kathryn

Just FYI to comment that, a couple of days ago, a listserv member had suggested I submit my thesis to UMI ProQuest since it might inform her own thesis-in-progress. Since then, that Dissertation website has been too busy for me to gain access; but I will keep trying and will notify the list when my thesis is posted on there.
'Nuff said,
Kathryn
