The spiritually healthy graduate student
With summer and the end of the school year on the not-too-distant horizon, a lot of college students have one exciting and intimidating thought on their minds: graduate school. In a few months, plenty of graduates will be put the college life behind them and embark into the most challenging phase of their academic careers yet.
Over at InterVarsity’s Graduate and Faculty Ministries site, Bob Trube has written up a useful primer for graduate students called seven habits of the highly effective Christian graduate student. As any grad student will tell you, the academic environment of graduate school poses a lot of unique challenges to students accustomed to life at a college or university, so it’s always a good idea to go in aware of the stresses your personal and spiritual life might face. If you’re headed to grad school in the fall, or if you think grad school is somewhere in your future, take a look at this advice.
I think that it is good to take graduate school, if you really think that it will help your career growth. Thanks for posting this.
