Congratulations, Dr. Compton!

Richard Compton successfully defended his PhD thesis entitled "The Syntax and Semantics of Modification in Inuktitut: Adjectives and Adverbs in a Polysynthetic Language". We celebrated with Richard at a party hosted by his supervisor, Alana Johns.

Pre-defense...excitement?
