    a postdoc told me she's going to open up a bakery after her contract ends next year......

      I think the biomedical postdocs get an advantage because the NIH sets up specific salary requirements.

      Probably more stable than an academic job.

    Okay, so the application is due November 1st, but it's not even up yet. Is it normal to give only a one-month timeframe for an application?

    First day of school! I've been here not even 5 minutes and am already panicking. Why am I doing this, again?!

    postdocs and grad students are the modern slaves and should be protected by laws

      Some universities do have grad student unions. For example, I think all of the UCs are represented by a single grad student union.

      I'll agree that there's exploitation, but slave is way too much. Just leave, you have at least a bachelors, you should be able to find work.

    You know you're in the Midwest when your school has a corn roast during Welcome Week!

      Then I hope they got it local. Local, fresh sweet corn is amazing.

      Have you taken the time to explore your new city? Surely there's stuff to do there.

      I'm on the wait list for the university's family housing. But, it's actually a pretty good price compared to the rest of the city.
