Episode 34
The term "Part-time doctoral student" is a misnomer. Our gente who navigate full-time work, while also engaging in coursework and life outside of campus are full-time, full-time. There's really no part-time to it!
La Profesora talks with future Dr. Bri Serrano about their journey to entering the program at Colorado State University, while also working full-time at Cal Poly-Pomona. Bri notes the critical questions that you have to ask of the program, of your work colleagues, and of yourself as you make the decision to enroll. They also remind us that the core motivation to earning this degree can't just be about a credential. There has to be something far deeper to carry you through.
Our Poet-in-Residence and in Resistencia, Sarah Gonzales, curates poetry from Staceyann Chin "For You".
