The relationship between graduate student and mentor is quite special and sometimes intense. I feel this way in part because of the chain that links me to V. M. Goldschmidt, the founder of geochemistry. Goldschmidt supervised Brian Mason who supervised Ross Taylor who, along with Bill Compston, supervised me at the ANU. One of the treats of working in a research university is the opportunity to be associated with a steady stream of bright aspirants to careers in teaching and research or other careers that benefit from research experience.
