PhD full time or mixed with teaching?

A

Dear All,

just a quick survey:

who is a full-time PhD student (not teaching at all) and who is a PhD student/teaching monkey (like me)?

A

Explanation of second option: full-time with teaching (not P/T)

H

I'm a FT and do some teaching, not loads though.

T

Full time but do some teaching and supervising for some extra cash.

T

Ooops and the experience of course

C

I'm a full time PhD student, no teaching.

A

I think Coastman and I are in the same boat really. You and I went to the same universities for UG and PhD right? What's with 'Coastman' by the way?

T

Did we? News to me...

T

Oh good joke by the way. Coastman...boat...

H

Adem, I thought you were one of the gimperials?

H

Oh yes, I just remembered so is coastman.

A

Yeah baby!! 100% Gimperial!! I now live in Gaybridge (Cambridge) but the hallowed days or Dr Dave Hartley's lectures on Drosophila will never leave me. Where are you H?

H

Down the road from where PGFT are based but also have admit I am a former gimperialian

L

We have the option of doing it or not. I chose to do some

P

Okay, it took me a while but I finally worked out that Oxbridge is just a combination of Cambridge and Oxford. Now can someone please explain to me what a gimperial is? Confusled.
