A Note From the Family

Our son began his PhD the year his cousin finished medical school, got married, and had a child. We seek a match with the patience of a viva committee and the low expectations of a fellowship disbursement office.

Gems of Wisdom

Research Philosophy

The thesis isn't late. The archive is still speaking to me.

Productivity Metrics

I have 14 conference papers and 0 completed chapters. Draw your own conclusions.

Public Educator

Every family wedding is a chance to explain what 'subaltern' means, again.

Negotiation Tactics

My advisor asks about my progress. I ask about hers. We've reached a stalemate.

Seeking a Match Who

A partner who doesn't ask 'so when do you graduate' and understands that 'almost done' is a permanent academic season, not a deadline.

Absolute Dealbreakers

The question 'so what will you actually do with this degree,' impatience with footnotes, anyone who finished their PhD in under six years and mentions it.

Endorsements

Presented a paper so dense the Q&A session was entirely silence.

Conference Attendee

Explained his thesis topic at a wedding for 40 minutes. The band started early to compensate.

Distant Relative

Has cited Gramsci at three different family functions, unprompted, correctly.

Sibling

Astro-Ideological Kundli Alignment
