Grad students need advice, too #5

Open ProfJanetDavis opened 3 years ago

...for example, about choosing a research advisor in their first year.

Should this go in the existing slide deck (#3) or some new resource?

From Gary: On the AAAS website there was a series about someone’s entire grad experience: https://www.sciencemag.org/author/micella-phoenix-dewhyse-0

Also: grad-student-specific advice about how to get into mentoring undergraduates/high school students (and feel reasonably competent/confident doing so)

There's already a slide titled "How to Find an Advisor," and the last half of the presentation is essentially providing advice for grad students that is helpful for undergrads to hear before applying. Given the length of the presentation, splitting the grad-related segments and labeling them as such could be helpful.
