i am churning over an entry in my head about something i heard at orientation. one of the profs in charge asked, "what kind of academic do you want to be?" while it was meant to be inspiring, it also was fairly pretentious in context (not uncommon in academia!)
but in light of some entries i have been reading lately by others in the field, i am wondering just what career options lie ahead. more importantly, i am wondering how i feel about those options compared to how i should feel about those according to profs who run in hoity-toity circles. yeah, it's late and i said "hoity-toity."
need to squeeze in some more reading while listening to the mets spiral out of control. that's the team i know and love!
