Thanks for that link. I went over and read the article, and agree that it's good reading for students in any discipline. In fact, I wish I could show it to some of my undergraduate students who are used to being top of the class and seem a bit shocked and disheartened by how things work at university level.

Loved that article - as an arts doc student, I feel overwhelmed by the things I don't understand and the theories I'm trying to come up with. I think it's made worse by the fact that because there are no answers in my field - you'd think that'd make you feel better - you can't possibly be wrong - but instead it can swamp you. This was such a comfort to me, cheers!
