[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I did a Ph.D. in a humanities field at UofC. They didn't even need all of us to teach, but R1 professors need students to supervise. It's a total racket. [/quote] At Chicago, it was unusual for grad students to teach much in the undergrad programs. They were smart and started a PhD post-doc program and hired all the recent grads for "finishing" school and *they* were the ones who were exploited to teach undergrads. Of course, a lot of them went on to take the tenure-line jobs (having a few years of experience at Chicago, and getting a book out during that time). [/quote]
