Martin Tracey: How Undergrad Matters and the Changing Landscape of Graduate Studies

An Academic Odyssey

Benedictine University's Dr. Martin Tracey gives subtle and ultimately optimistic insight into the pressures and pleasures of graduate study in the humanities. Our discussion covers topics such as the importance of one's BA program and experiences, mentoring relationships, and the affordances of today's increasing digital and online university system. Tracey is particularly insightful on the mindset proper to transitioning from BA to graduate school and from a finished graduate degree to whatever is next.
