Inside the mystic world of postgrad study ...

If you've survived a period of time in postgrad study (grad school in US terms) then you'll appreciate Piled Higher and Deeper. Its a sort of Dilbert for strange alternate world post grad study.

If not then I have to tell you the cartoons convey an suprisingly large amount of contextual truth about the PhD world - and are a lot of fun.

I returned to the world of University after 4 years employment and tried to explain to my fellow grad students why Dilbert was so funny - they just didn't get it then. Maybe the same might be true of the PhD cartoons - they're funny because it hurts!
