[quote=Anonymous]I did not do this myself but have taught a couple of students at UMD who started a Ph.D. in the humanities after retirement. I can report they were loving the work and were great to have in class. As others have said, I would NOT take on debt to do this, and even for younger students I would advise doing it because you want to spend this portion of your life doing this and not because you can count on a career coming out of it. Pick a program that is congenial and supportive. And only do it if you're funded or have the funds to do it on your own dime without compromising your retirement.[/quote]
