Morgan's PhD thesis was an exploration of the Navajo concept of ''hózhó'', a word that can be loosely translated as 'beauty', 'harmony' or 'balance', but in fact means all of that. Based on the material that the Special Projects Unit made available to her and her knowledge of mythic maps such as the Navajo sand-painting rituals, Morgan was encouraged to believe that the [[D'ni (race)|D'ni]] '[[Art|art of writing]]' referred to a metaphorical conjuring of worlds. In a deliberate strategy by [[Beatrice Lang|Lang]] and [[Zarek Mazerowski|Mazerowski]] to deflect what could have been a dangerous interest in the potentials of D'ni technology, Lapahie was granted a fellowship to give public lectures on this topic. | Morgan's PhD thesis was an exploration of the Navajo concept of ''hózhó'', a word that can be loosely translated as 'beauty', 'harmony' or 'balance', but in fact means all of that.
