From the article:
'Imagine how bad our PhD student theses would be if we said, "It's year two. Course work is done. Come back in three years with a thesis, and if you want you could always come and ask me questions, but otherwise that's it. You're off." Of course it would be awful. That’s just too distant a deadline.'
'You realize you're describing the experience of 30 percent of all graduate students in the United States.'
Ouch. That's just painful.
