This week on the blog: Should you go to graduate school - more specifically, should you go to graduate school in one of the academic (rather than professional) disciplines of the humanities? I love the humanities, but I'm sorry to say the answer is no.https://acoup.blog/2021/10/01/collections-so-you-want-to-go-to-grad-school-in-the-academic-humanities/ …
In the defense of professors, as I noted most professors would prefer their grad students be far better funded and academic hiring be much more robust. What they lack if the power to do anything about it. Not that most regularly exercise what power they have, mind.
