Week 6 assignment

I still have some work to do on the week 6 assignment - I am late this week. I hope to submit soon
(this is a reminder that these assignments/papers don't "write themselves").

The PhD is still important! I am marching towards that professor position. This article reminds me of this important choice/decision:

I have been working on other stuff - my planned/proposed tea business (https://teasforhealing.wordpress.com/), and so on. Finances/funding is important too. Notice that the article states:

Getting a doctorate is intellectually rewarding. Unfortunately, it doesn't tend to be financially rewarding, at least not in the short term. Most PhD students live on their earnings from teaching and research assistantships or other low-paying employment. So, your starving student days may not be behind you.
Work continues.
