[quote=Anonymous]don't do this. if your DC is not good enough to be accepted to a top phd program in philosophy they will never be a professional philosopher. they can read and discuss philosophy on a side. even if they were accepted to a phd program at oxbridge they would then apply to an academic job as one of a 1000 applicants. the odds will be against them to be a professor anywhere but a medicare school in the middle of nowhere. and then, on top of it, most professional philosophers i met are, paradoxically, pretty unhappy about their jobs. their salaries are very low and most students are not interested in their work. their academic work is also often very technical. they won a lottery that was not worth winning.[/quote]
