I defended my dissertation with no revisions! Committee says she is a qualitative chair with a quantitative mind, exceptionally sharp and analytically precise. I had a very difficult committee member, and she addressed the situation directly and effectively. She is highly organized, straightforward, and tells you exactly what needs to be done.LEAD777 2026-03-14 13:44:41 +0000 UTC

Mrs Eilias is a good person with a good heart to help her students to be the best they can be, she is able to get something complicate and make simple to understand- Only northeastern professor I will miss after graduation probably the only one that replies e:mails, knows y name and stops to say hi and ask how y are doing when she sees you around.1102 2015-09-17 07:52:48 +0000 UTC
