Philosophers who assess grad school/PhD applications: do you care whether applicants have publications? Does it weigh strongly in their favour, carry no weight, or even weigh against? (you may wish to distinguish any pub from a good pub, whatever you take the latter to mean) #philsky

Congratulations to Maanasa on successfully passing her PhD defense! Dr. Maanasa is now heading on a new adventure as a postdoc. I wish her the best.

PhD vivas drive me nuts. They are so unevenly done in this country. It comes down to the personality of the examiners as much as the quality of the research. You might get someone looking to put you in your place. And you might get someone who lets problems through unchalleged.

Oh, need to withdraw from my PhD program which was employer funded tomorrow. Which, honestly, is a relief. I will find something that still generates a bit of excitement for me. No fault of the program. It 'fit the criteria' for work funding, which is really not the way to pick your PhD.

When I was failed for my #phd, I wonder why there was no system to check. If someone fails to reach the expected level, surely it should trigger review by a third party? Or some investigating into guidance given should be made? #phdlife #phdchat #phdvoice

Waiting for acceptances or rejections for funding has to be my least favourite PhD/academia experience. #academic #PhD

Proud of Drs. Wright & Mac, the latest PhD graduates of HaPI lab. Dr. Wright's thesis looked at 'Integrating Digital Health & Behaviour Change Following Bariatric Surgery’ & Dr. Mac's thesis was on ‘Understanding QR Code Check-in & Compliance Behaviour in the COVID-19 Pandemic’. Well done to both 🎓🥂

Just found a near perfect job which I'd be very suitable for. But it explicitly requires a #PhD. So, despite having the skills and knowledge, I'm intelligible. 10.5 years working towards a PhD, downgraded at the last minute. Really cuts off various futures. #phdlife #phdchat #phdvoice

Including my UG, I've spent 15 years in higher education only to be awarded 2 masters degrees. It's beyond a joke that you can work within all the guidelines for a #PhD and still be failed after revisions, right? Like, the system shouldn't let folk get to that. #phdlife #phdchat #phdvoice

I may have jokingly told my PhD committee in a passing comment that I'd be ready to defend come Jan. 19 In no way will I be ready for it then, and I don't wanna ruin my birthday that way BUT, should I aim for it anyways using that date as a "deadline" for motivation? Only time will tell I guess
