Joel in Graduation Robe

Here I am wearing the typical academic regalia of a professor in Kazakhstan, a wonderful gift to me from my student and good friend, Ainur Nurtai. As you can see, with its rich golden embroidery and bishop's miter-inspired cap, it will make a striking impression during the next academic procession in which I take part! Thanks, Ainur, for making me the best-dressed professor every time I process!
