The author's objection to graduate school in the humanities has less to do with a lack of intellectual rigor than with the structure of the job market in that part of the academy.
So I think your comment is somewhat misleading in connecting this article (or "these articles") to your own criticism. (Which criticism may of course be valid on its own terms.)
- CWuestefeld 17y agoI didn't read philk's comment as a criticism. I think it was a sidebar comment triggered by the OP's almost offhand reference to "life of mind" I don't see where philk "connected" his own comment with any of the arguments made in the OP. It's just something he added.
