⬐ MaxBarracloughInteresting watch, but very USA-specific.⬐ fastaguy88Ha Ha Ha. Advice to those thinking about advanced degrees: Don't pay for a Masters unless it is required for your profession (e.g. Masters of Social Work is required to be a Clinical Social Worker). And never pay for a PhD program in the US. If it's a strong program, the students are fully supported (though perhaps not well supported). Graduate school is not every one (academia is not for everyone), but it should not put you in debt.
