Underway

I had a meeting yesterday with my Doctoral Advisory Committee.  I was torn between the EdD and the PhD.  The EdD is more based in practice and the PhD in research.  We talked a long time about what I “want to be when I grow up” and because my end goal is college professor we [...]

Getting Ph.D Behind Your Name Isn’t Easy
