Just a quick reminder that I’m holding a free teleclass on surviving graduate school tonight at 8ET / 5PT. You can sign up here.

I’m really excited about this one — we’re going to be talking about how you can take charge of your relationship to graduate school, and thus make setting priorities, choosing how to use your time, and interacting with others all quite a bit easier.

If you’re interested but can’t attend in person, sign up anyway — I’ll send the audio recording out afterwards.

My wife is starting graduate school in the fall. She’ll be getting a MDiv with the goal of being a congregational minister.

I thought I’d mention it in case anyone was concerned that I was against graduate school in all its forms!

Clearly, graduate school is the right choice for many people, and many more will choose to go even if they really do understand the risks involved. And that’s a good thing, because academia and future college students deserve excited, engaged, passionate teachers and researchers.

It’s going to be really interesting to kind of go through graduate school again, albeit a very different kind of graduate school and from a very different perspective. I’m sure it’ll give me a lot to talk about!

Last week I asked what people were needing more of here at Escape the Ivory Tower, and a number of people wanted more conversation about graduate school and how to survive it.

If that’s you, look for some blog posts to come, and check out the April free teleclass on surviving graduate school.

If that’s not you, feel free to add your voice to the chorus in the comments here and I’ll do what I can to address it!
