Susan Ruppelt

Susan Ruppelt was a PhD candidate at University of California, Los Angeles specializing in the Holy Roman Empire. She met and began dating Bryce Miller when she was moving into the TA office he was vacating. Her preparations for her oral examination were driving her crazy and she turned to Miller for comfort. He had gone through the same thing several years previously and assured her that feeling upset beforehand was normal and that her chairperson wouldn't let her go up for examination until she was ready.
