Description
Faculty advisors can make or break a students’ chance of getting a PhD.
But often these professors have little to no training in teaching or mentorship.
That can lead to disastrous consequences for students.
And it hamstrings efforts to get more Black and Brown students into science.
W-B-E-Z’s Lisa Kurian Philip tells the story of a University of Chicago student who found this out the hard way.
