Reblogged for my fellow readers who decided to go to grad school when they were almost 30. My experience, however, also involved a lot of WTF from sudden immersion in the academy that this cartoon could never even portray. The world of academia is a goddamn strange and cringe-inducing space for all of us who migrated over from the real world. Still, it’s fun. Mostly.
This is not the kind of thing I want to see while I’m in the middle of my grad school applications. Wah.
I ADORE PhD comics. So true, so true, so true.
I met Cham back in 2005, when I attended one of his talks. He’s cute, man.
