A smiling Dr Lynge Lauritsen in the glorious blue and gold OU PhD gown, with me in my red and blue Oxford DPhil robes with a white bow tie. The OU requires gown & hood and no hat, but Oxford specifies a gown, no hood and a mortar board for this outfit. Irresistible force & immovable object -who wins? It’s an OU event so OU rules prevail of course. In Oxford terms it’s a Gaudy, so there.
A smiling Dr Adam McMaster in the OU blue and gold PhD gown, with me in my red and blue Oxford DPhil one breaking an Oxford rule. Go see the alt text on the other photo for the why coz I aint typing that again haha
A lovely day today spent at an @openuniversity.bsky.social graduation, celebrating everyone but especially for me the newly minted Dr Lynge Lauritsen & Dr Adam McMaster #OUFamily

Love having #OUFamily stop by the gym! Had fun showing alums Aaron Basham (1991-95) and Ed Wentzheimer (1996-2000) around new facility and catching up.
Aaron owns and runs Cypress Gymnastics Academy—his son Carson currently an OU freshman—and Ed is a managing director at JP Morgan in NY.
