Description: This is a collection of first-person stories recounted by former graduate students who have successfully reached the other side of a PhD - and willing to speak frankly about the challenges and decisions they faced along the way. Their stories reveal that many of the difficulties associated with graduate school are institutional rather than personal; that getting sidetracked, detoured, and even derailed are the norm, not the exception; and that success is not necessarily tied to the tenure track - or even to completion. The book has 3 parts: 1) PhDs in Academia; 2) PhDs Beyond Academia; 3)PhDs Redirected.
