Today, over at Engineer Blogs. I discuss a reader's question on the economics of academia. Essentially, the reader asks why can't we have 20:1 class ratios and lecturers being paid $100/hr and not worry about bringing in research money. Monday, August 29, 2011. Lesson Plans Down the Drain. So all that legacy code that I've built up over...

Grads, Engineering, Academia, Research, Students. Life after landing a Tenure Track position in engineering. Friday, February 17, 2012. Why a Postdoc is basically needed in Academia. Today, over at Engineer Blogs, I discuss why a. Postdoc is pretty much mandatory to succeed in academia. In a nutshell, YIAs are, in my opinion, supremely biased towards faculty that have had long postdoc stints which screw over faculty such as yours truly who didn't postdoc. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Tails of an Angry Lab Rat: A despondent rant
http://toxdosemakesthepoison.blogspot.com/2012/04/despondent-rant.html
Tails of an Angry Lab Rat. Trials, tribulations, and the occasional triumph of a PhD in progress. Wednesday, April 4, 2012. This is nothing new, but no less true. No less significant. Perhaps it's so devastating because it's not new. Because my entire experience in grad school has been an uphill battle, one where I continuously plummet back down the mountain and have to retrace my path. Do it again, except while battered and bruised. Do you know how much anxiety, stress, and disparaging comments could ha...

Tails of an Angry Lab Rat. Trials, tribulations, and the occasional triumph of a PhD in progress. Monday, February 4, 2013. Bacon, Egg, and Cheese, Please! I had the most amazing bacon and egg sandwich from a local place this past weekend. I have shied away from it for months since it was an overpriced version of something available in any New York street corner deli.

They've proven useful for my presentation thus far, so that's a plus. Almost there. Seriously cannot wait for this to be over. Wednesday, January 4, 2012.
