Original: A PhD should stretch you, but do not let it consume you
University World News carries an argument that doctoral study should challenge students intellectually without damaging their wellbeing. The piece warns that PhD candidates often let research absorb their entire lives, and calls for healthier boundaries, realistic expectations and better support so that the degree remains demanding but not all-consuming.
Why now: Concerns about PhD student burnout and mental health are a persistent topic in higher education debates.
