      As a grad student mostly. That said, non-tenured professors also have to work their asses off. The pyramid scheme dream is becoming tenured and having a large pool of grad students to abuse help you with your work.

          I’m not sure how you feel about the limiting thing, but it is controversial in the US. Some departments do limit, others feel that isn’t fair. Personally, I think we should understand why the academia system is set up the way it is and ask if it makes sense in the modern world.

      Professor in 3rd world country. 😂

      Welp. At least here, any gradschool tuition is possible to make living, unlike in North America or Europe. 😂
