The Graduate Handbook Shows Education Federation Progress
The eighth edition of The Graduate Handbook from the Federation of Graduate Clubs, edited by James H. Patten of Harvard, presents a leaner volume with sixty one pages. It records the federation representing over four thousand graduate students and pushes for a uniform Ph D standard of three years, credit portability across institutions, and publication of all Ph D theses. It notes the convention’s mix of praise and critique of lecture systems and regards fellowships as recognitions of attainment. It also calls for more study on graduate undergrad relations and celebrates the federation’s role in uniting graduate students for discussion of modern education questions.
