[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And every first-author paper by an undergrad is basically ghostwritten by a more senior co-author who would have had an easier time just writing it themselves. I hate the whole undergraduate research trend. They're better off taking more math or stats instead.[/quote] Wow, you really have some sad axe to grind in this regard, so could not take the olive branch being offered. I also have a PhD, from Johns Hopkins. And I am a tenured full professor. Yet, like MANY academics, I was thrilled when my child chose to receive his fundamental science training from a SLAC. One of us really does not have to be right and the other wrong. But your personality does not seem able to compute that simple reality. Perhaps that is why you are trying to say everyone needs to fight their way to recognition in a dog-eat-dog, back stabbing environment or face a dismal future. --from a successful scientist who does not share your world view[/quote]
