======Dark times in the Academy======
//Chapter 1 notes//
----
====The end of an Era====
  * 花在教育上的经费越来越少
  * 更多地方雇佣 //adjunct// 人员取代 //tenure// 人员 (2013 年比例为 3:1)
===薪水走势===
{{:other:jobs:the_prof_in:snipaste_2023-09-12_14-27-47.png?600|}}
==adjunct 的问题==
  * 合同拖到新学期开始前签
  * 没有学校的支持与指南
====Breaking out of the Ivory Tower====
  * 多半是说为啥自己要做这行
  *// Individual efforts alone cannot overcome systemic forces.// 
====The myths Grad students Believe====
===学生相信的 myths（误区）===
  * 别人评判的是我的 idea，不是 cv
  * TA exp will make me marktable
  * 很多人没有 publication 也拿到了工作
  * 我对高压的工作没有野心，所以不需把 cv 写的很好
  * 教书职位不需要很好的 cv
  * 我的 advisor 很牛逼所以我不用担心
  * my discipline is doing fine
  * 我的 committee 说就业率很高
  * 我不是为了钱干这个
  * 没找到工作的都没我牛逼
  * My passion sets me apart
  * 我是例外
==作者认为的反面例子==
>//The connections that you make in graduate school through getting involved, mentoring undergraduates, and teaching are invaluable. Although these may not show up as a line on your CV, they will shape
who you are and help you during your job interview.”
//
--**They are not things that get a candidate short-listed**
  * 相信 passion 的权重很大。 it counts only as the motivator for a set of specific skills leading to a narrow set of quantifiable and mostly objective outcomes, in this case publications, grants, targeted teaching experience, and impressive references.
  * 为了显得真实而去否定
    * 我没有野心/ 我不需要跟多的钱  / 我不需要高排名的职位 / 只要我在大学教书我就能开心
  * 希望和舒适区：
    * asking prof for hope and confort( is seeking false reassurance, There is no “safe haven” for Ph.D.’s on the academic job market.)
==对应策略==
<WRAP center round box 100%>
靠自己，不能考导师
</WRAP>

  * 最小化风险，最大化投资
    * you must use every year in graduate school to** produce a record oriented precisely to the demands of the tenure track market**,while **keeping an eye open to nonacademic options.** （在入学时就可以开始准备了）
