Some thoughts after attending the terrific #WEBDiversitySummit organized by @caleconwomen. For me, one main takeaway was the informational disadvantage facing female, minority, and many international grad students.
It is hard for faculty to remember how little grad students know about the generally-unspoken rules of grad school and about how they can be successful as junior economists.
How and when do you choose an advisor? How many faculty members should you talk to regularly? What can you reasonably expect from them? What should you hide from them? How should you behave in seminars? How do you referee a paper? How do you respond to an R&R?
