I really hate this idea because it assumes that the current market is stable, and that universities are over exceeding how many entrants and that is making the issue.https://twitter.com/lwatson_ca/status/1333614632611680256 …

No, the issue is that departments are being gutted, people retire and those positions are removed, adjunctification, etc. And while yes there are a lot of Phd students relative to jobs but this idea that we need to allow fewer to do a PhD to account for this seems bad.

No one should be barred from doing a PhD, and seeing a bunch of tenured or employed folks say that we need fewer without addressing the severity of why the market is how it is is galling.
