[quote=Anonymous]I regret not realizing that entering an interdisciplinary program in grad school would not properly prepare me for the politics of and professional requirements for getting tenure in a disciplinary department. I picked the advisor who I thought had the background most suited to my dissertation topic but he knew little about these things. For example, he thought I would get lots of offers when I went out on the job market. Yeah, that's the sign of someone who got his job in the 1960s - a much better job market than we faced in the 90s.[/quote]
