I recently became involved in a departmental committee as a PhD student. It's me, representing grad students, vs. 5 faculty members. Overall, it has not been a good experience, but there is one committee member that has been very supportive and has become a mentor to me. This person has made the whole experience worth it for me. I can only hope to be so lucky to find a PC if I ever nab a faculty position.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29059245.post-67939155942643812502009-04-05T10:16:00.000-05:002009-04-05T10:16:00.000-05:00FSP, it's both fantastic that you have a PC, and t...FSP, it's both fantastic that you <I>have</I> a PC, and that you celebrate PC in this way.

A PI I worked for years ago referred to one of his colleagues as his science-wife :) Both were happily married (to other people), but had a found a similar symmetry in their working relationship. And a joy of it was the platonicity (if I might be so bold as to coin a neologism on someone else's blog...).tideliarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12570056632131128856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29059245.post-3713037824417964172009-04-03T10:47:00.000-05:002009-04-03T10:47:00.000-05:00Lucky both of you!

It is a great help and has really advanced my PhD. Her advisor is on my committee as well and during my meeting our advisors talked about us working so much. It is funny that what was once a casual coffee meeting has now turned into "think tank", we have a room reserved and a selective crew that shows up to talk out ideas and projects. Eveyone is working on something completly different but gets allot out of it.Katy F-Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02951036027144688797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29059245.post-11534624781173573322009-04-03T09:35:00.000-05:002009-04-03T09:35:00.000-05:00What a sweet post!

I have had a few people I really loved working with, but they are all really far away or not in science anymore (or dead). <BR/><BR/>Everyone should be so lucky as to find someone like this, but in your own department??
