I have not wrote for a long time being that I have been writing and editing my dissertation. I will defend on August 26th. Life has been mundane, but at the same time infested with drama with a family member. But that story is for another time…
It’s job market time again, and though both excited and nervous, I do not have the time to worry much. But I feel more confident this year about things. But I also wonder as I hear others talking about it, how the structural factors of our PhD education and institutions effect our outlook on the market, how we deal with it, and the outcomes. And I wonder how realistic we are about the “job market”, but again, how does this reality differ in terms of our areas, institutions, and the so forth.
