Graduate Quotes

You don’t go to school to become the best chef in the world right after you graduate. School is always a starting point so what people forget is that you go to school to build a foundation, and you want to build a foundation that’s not going to crumble Picture Quote #1

I started my career as a liberal arts major from Berkeley, wrote about enterprise IT for a few years, then followed my passion for the digital narrative into graduate school as well (also at Berkeley, the Oxford of the West or, perhaps, the Harvard - sorry Stanford!). My first project out of grad school was ‘Wired’ magazine Picture Quote #1

The thing that’s depressing is teaching graduate students today and discovering that they don’t know simple elemental facts of grammar. They really do not know how to scan a line; they’ve never been taught to scan a line. Many of them don’t know the difference between ‘lie’ and ‘lay,’ let alone ‘its’ and ‘it’s.’ And they’re in graduate school! Picture Quote #1

So often, we’re expected to maintain some sort of standard - that won’t get you where you need to go. One of the most daring things I’ve done is drop out of graduate school. I had no job, but something inside me was saying, ‘Go! Be in the world!’ I had to listen to myself, and it worked out. I still think, ‘Who was that girl?’ Picture Quote #1

I’ll graduate high school with a major in Cynicism and a minor in Irritation Picture Quote #1

God has a university. It’s a small school. Few enroll; even fewer graduate Picture Quote #1

When I was at graduate school in London, I began working at NBC News, which had a thriving documentary unit Picture Quote #1

I think sleeping was my problem in school. If school had started at 4:00 in the afternoon, I’d be a college graduate today Picture Quote #1

I saw more stupid people in graduate school and three decades in academia than I ever did who ran 100 acres without going broke Picture Quote #1

I think if I learned anything in graduate school, it was to not drool around other actors who would normally make you drool Picture Quote #1

I went to NYU for a year and a half, and I graduated from there and then years later went to Columbia for graduate school Picture Quote #1

I never expected my graduate degrees to give me all the practical how-to’s that can perhaps only be learned through the school of hard knocks Picture Quote #1

If American schooling is inadequate now, just imagine how much more obsolete it will be when today’s kindergarten students graduate from high school in just 12 years Picture Quote #1

Over my life as a teacher, women have been too quiet. I’m quiet myself. I don’t think I said three words the whole of graduate school Picture Quote #1

Most students graduate from high school knowing nine words about the civil rights movement: Rosa Parks, Martin Luther King, and I Have a Dream. And that’s it! Picture Quote #1

Eight months later, having left Columbia, I was studying physics in a summer program and working in Colorado when I decided to enroll as a graduate student in biophysics Picture Quote #1

As a graduate student I studied mathematics fairly broadly, and I was fortunate enough, besides developing the idea which led to ‘Non-Cooperative Games,’ also to make a nice discovery relating to manifolds and real algebraic varieties Picture Quote #1

I started doing science when I was effectively 20, a graduate student of Salvador Luria at Indiana University. And that was - you know, it took me about two years, you know, being a graduate student with Luria deciding I wanted to find the structure of DNA; that is, DNA was going to be my objective Picture Quote #1

I’ve always been - as a teacher, as graduate student, as a student, and I think, really, as a child - I’ve been interested in poems, but not so much for what the take home pay is, what you might sum up from them in moral or intellectual terms or whatever, but what’s in the certain lines and how lines relates to other lines Picture Quote #1

If you want to be a graduate student, you have to fall in love with reading Picture Quote #1

A clever graduate student could teach Fourier something new, but surely no one claims that he could teach Archimedes to reason better Picture Quote #1

In the United States, in poetry workshops, it’s now quite a thing to make graduate students learn poems by heart Picture Quote #1

At the beginning of every semester, I ask my graduate students whether there is something I should read that will help me understand their work Picture Quote #1

I learned quickly, as I tell my graduate students now, there are no answers in the back of the book when the equipment doesn’t work or the measurements look strange Picture Quote #1
