Traditions

As tradition of "time" in the Doerge Research Group, there is a "beautiful" (circa 1970) clock that is passed from Ph.D. student to Ph.D. student. As each student finishes their Ph.D. they have the honor of signing the back of the clock, wrapping it as a gift, and giving it to the next in line.
