I’m sorry but this advice sucks. That advice is what will keep academia full of straight white men.

I know it’s shit right now but this really hurts to see as someone who has worked so hard and 1st gen. I’m tired of it honestly. I’m tired of the “BUT” when talking about PhD in History. I’m tired of only having two Prof. OC. Of having someone not relatable.
Do better. You can approach the giving advice critically acknowledging this issues. I was told this my undergrad. It gave me so much anxiety during my MA. But my dept supporter me & my decision.

This advice is a slap in the face to students who have put themselves into debt because they are trying to raise themselves out of the caste system that our country has created. Because we believe and are told going on o college is the only way to elevate yourself.
