1/4 It was one of the best times of my life !
A Learning high
Seminars | Courses across fields-I remember discussing/debating over coffee with classmates & TA’s. Sometimes with Profs in the corridors.
Evenings on whiteboards mapping our thesis ideas. #Acad #phdchat https://twitter.com/TBrown_birds/status/1290653985112764421

3/4 For most,advisors were supportive & gave us time.
Meetings were confidence boosters. I also appreciated discussions of latest research.
My advisor would also frequently check in on me. ( it’s been so & so wks .. )
It was hard to feel lost or invisible.
