As a graduate student, I asked a PI if I could join their lab, they told me their was always room for a good grad student, but then when I joined another lab, they came and acted surprised - turns out I wasn't sure if I counted as a "good" enough grad student in their book
I love all the requests I see in academia for "brilliant" students and "outstanding" post docs, who wants the merely average but dedicated/hardworking? Only the best of the best need apply
@PhDfriendSana @AcademicChatter @HaphdS @What2doWithTHAT As long as they don't expect an answer, unless there is an actual emergency or deadline like a paper resubmission
@chris_bore @GradSkoolStrugs @TipsyProfessor If an advisor is unable to establish an objective measure for graduating a PhD student, how can they claim to perform the most fundamental aspect of science: measuring the world around them. Despite this, most advisors have no clear bar for their students.
