This episode discusses research by Stuart Karabenick (1940-2020), who was an incredible mentor during Sarah Davis’ PhD. One of the first times they met at a conference where he was in a role of a mentor, after hearing about her research he asked her: “How can I help you?” He is fondly missed and we know he would love hearing that we are discussing his work on help-seeking in this episode.

Saison 2

Becca and I are working on planning our next season of the podcast. We anticipate we will be releasing 4-6 new episodes between October and December.

We’d love for you to submit your questions about grad school!

Becca and I will use these questions to set the topic for our upcoming episodes and bring our experiences and knowledge of research in educational psychology to provide you with some options.

If you submit a question and it is answered on our podcast, you'll get a free 3 month subscription to the new How To Grad School Club launched this fall. You can submit your question here.

For all our listeners who are current grad students, use the coupon code HTGSPODCAST10 for one free month in The Club. We're only giving out 30 of these spaces so sign up soon as these spaces will fill up! Offer valid until October 31, 2023.
