[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A PhD itself is worth the paper it's printed on, and not that hard to get once you're in a program (unfortunately it's very hard to get rid of grad students - easier to just finish them up if they insist on staying). What did they do AFTER earning that Ph.D.? Run a lab? Or scrape by adjuncting at community colleges? [/quote] Funny, I am a tenured professor at an R1 and I have found that it is not easy to earn the PhD. If students don't meet the requirements, they don't stay (unless independent wealthy) and retain ABD status. We never just "finish them up" at our university, but maybe they do at yours?[/quote]
