My PhD adviser is not happy at my current university and is looking for a faculty position at another school. If he goes, I have a few options. 1) I follow him to the new school, retake a few classes, and continue my research under him. 2) Stay at my current school and be co-advised by a professor that remains on campus. 3) Quit and go into the job market with my masters degree.


Factors playing major roles in the decision: My gf (probably fiance within the year) still having to finish her undergrad, academic quality of the new school (will in all likelihood be more academically respected), financial compensation for move/ cost of living increases, etc.


Well, let me ask you this...which option are you considering most at the moment and why?

To early to call as my adviser has not yet decided on a new school or if he will go to a new school. However, he has made it quite clear to me that he is looking and would want me to come with him to any new institution.

My initial instinct is to go to the new school (bump in academic prestige, research continuity, better facilities), the final decision though would have to be extensively discussed with my SO in order to work out living situations, etc.

I used to let him have some. He would hear me crushing the ice in the icemaker and he would come running in the kitchen and go ape shite.


I would make him his own, watered down, small glass. He would be so happy. He liked strawberry daquris also.
