Michael HabibThe Woodrow Wilson National Fellowship Foundation released a report (.pdf) today offers a number of ideas for reforms. Its 80 pages, so I haven’t had a chance to read it yet. Some key points highlighed in the press release are:
more robust support for interdisciplinary scholarship; training that prepares Ph.D. candidates to teach in many settings and apply their expertise beyond the academy; better recruitment and retention of doctoral students of color (a theme addressed more fully in the June 2005 companion report, Diversity and the Ph.D.); and dynamic connections between Ph.D. programs and the corporate, government, and nonprofit sectors.
