Yup. I was broke all through college & grad school but I had access to a world class library. I lived on a wild life refuge for most of that time. Hiked with my dogs & read a lot of books in those years. A good life & good time in my life. The arcanum of knowledge is vast.

This makes me feel a lot more confident actually. Thankfully I was the only son who would read for my librarian mother. Pleased to know it could become a superpower.

true, and I recommend to read each paper abstract and figures/tables first, then make your own conclusion then read the rest of the paper. you'll free yourself from the authors' narrative

Reading is the only way a student can flourish at university. Yet a large proportion of students are convinced that they should be able to pass without reading anything other than websites. Universities pressure lecturers to promote alternatives to reading. Ridiculous.

This was very encouraging tbh.

I wasted it. I’m playing catch up. Thank you for what you do.

Wow spot on and explains my fristration in 2nd year psych. I tried to form a journal club but my younger cohort don’t have the bandwidth. I sometimes know more than the educator.
