Longest tenure*current*gradstudent-anyone got Gabriel Mares (13y,UMAss) beat?

Hi,
Thank you for this board's interest in my academic career. A few clarifications:
First of all, yes, I have been a PhD candidate for quite a while, but I've successfully defended my dissertation, will be receiving my diploma soon, and will be a postdoc at Princeton starting this fall.
My progress during my dissertation was slowed down by the birth of two children. I know I'm not the only PhD student to ever have to care for children, and it's not an excuse, but just a fact.
Finally, I'm not sure why this board believes my ethnicity is at all relevant to the completion of my degree. In any case, thank you for your commentary.

Diversity admits get extra rope, that’s why. A wht bro who wasn’t progressing would have been kicked out at many schools. After thirteen years one would think you’d learned a little bit about how our business functions, but apparently not!

The PSR cesspool has sunk to a new low, if that was even possible. Bullying grad students who are finishing up and trying to get jobs? Seriously?
On a more positive note, Congratulations Gabriel. All the best to you and your wonderful family. I hope you enjoy Princeton.
