Introduction: grad_abuse
http://grad-abuse.livejournal.com/1892.html
Hi I'm a first year graduate student in the humanities. I returned to academia after nearly a decade away in the corporate and arts worlds. Unfortunately, I have had more than my fair share of experiences with academic and professional superiors who abused their positions. Psychological power play by former friends turned bosses. Needless to say, I bid farewell to those situations very very quickly. Post a new comment. We will log you in after post. We will log you in after post. Post a new comment.

When a student assumes the advisor's research is open for discussion in the same way other researchers' work is, retaliating by holding required projects hostage in exchange for good behavior. Pressuring students to come up with the 'right' data. Verbal abuse, name-calling. Omit identifying details about your university and area of ...

Abuse of graduate students by advisors, as far as I can tell from extensive web-searching, isn't something that's openly discussed in academia, nor is it addressed by abuse-related communities. It's partially covered by the term 'workplace bullying,' but not entirely, because graduate school has characteristics that business workplaces do not (funding issues, limited time-span, no HR department for students to file complaints with, etc.). So, this place. Post a new comment. We will log you in after post.

From a new book on abusers in the workplace. It looks pretty good from the excerpt, and I appreciate that he sharply criticizes people who act consistently socially inappropriately yet states clearly that some people have social disabilities like Asperger's and non-verbal learning disability that should not be mistaken for the social inappropriateness he's talking about.

What's been going on so far is that people have posted their individual stories, and others have responded with support and suggestions. There's some information in the userinfo and I'm keeping my eye out for related links - if you see any would you post them, or email them to me at euziere@livejournal.com? What I'm thinking about now is activism. I mentioned to. Some other possible activism routes:. Activism at the university level: work with grad student organizations, if there are relevant ones (for e...
