A key thing that potential PhDs should be aware of is that academic culture does vary substantially between institution and within academic fields. Here, I mean the system of beliefs and values that academics honor.
How does academic culture vary?
1. Each institution has its own culture. Some schools have an open door or a closed door policy. Others have a culture in which you have to address Professors by the first name or formally as Professor so and so.
2. Academic culture does vary across the academy. You often see people have different views on the value of PhDs and how they should be treated. You also see implicit culture norms between how people between institutions interact.
Why are these implicit cultural norms and values? You can view academia as a battle for ideas and ideologies. The problem with this battle is that there is no clear definition of what is a good idea and what is a bad idea. The only way you can understand how your ideas stand is by your status position within the academic community, or who defers to your ideas. One way to ‘battle’ these ideas is through the implicit beliefs and norms within the academy.
Tips to handle this academic culture:
1. When in doubt about who people are, always treat others with respect and reverence.
2. If people treat you poorly at one moment, disregard this action, as it might be driven by many other rationale that is unobservable. Give qupeople a second chance.

**************
David Maslach is a research professor of entrepreneurship, innovation, and business strategy, I discuss topics, such as behavioral science, strategy, innovation, and entrepreneurship, and apply these to my new peer proofreading and editing platform. Topics include the sharing economy, altruism, investing in technology, starting a business, and bounded rationality. My favorite videos pertain to incentives, goal setting, and learning from failure to drive behaviors such as weight loss, stopping telemarketers, creating novel technologies, and creating new movements.
[ Ссылка ]: Peer proofreading and editing platform
A new platform where you can earn credits by editing other people's documents. Use these credits to have your own work edited. If you do a good enough job, you can convert these credits to money.
The goal of the platform is to get people to 'pay it forward' and help other people out by creating incentives for people to give back.
