  • This is hopelessly naive.

  • Really stupid and counter-productive. Of course there are upsides to graduate study in the humanities--this goes without saying--but the crisis in academic publishing and hiring makes it essential that we disclose the challenges of this life choice up front and not whitewash it, as you do.

  • Will someone please make one like this but about Physics. Would really help motivate me to not give up and go all the way for the Ph.D. Most of the ones I see are depressing.

  • love the work here

  • i enjoyed this vid

  • i enjoyed this vid

  • love the video really good

  • Sorry, but the other one was funny. This is blind cheerleading that has no wit and sounds like it comes from a brochure. And I'm a PhD student...

  • I kind of wonder why they bother even offering undergraduate degrees anymore

  • I'm planning on being a humanities PhD because I want to be, not because I want money, so all you haters can stop hating. If you want to be a PhD in science or math, go ahead, but dont make the humanities seem unimportant.

  • love it

  • Ignore the man behind the curtain. Get a PhD in the humanities.
