“Writing a dissertation on power structures. Currently subject to several.”
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.”
“Explained his thesis topic at a wedding for 40 minutes. The band started early to compensate.”
“Has cited Gramsci at three different family functions, unprompted, correctly.”
