There’s a new Stack­Ex­change site that might be use­ful to read­ers: Acad­e­mia. It is a Q&A site for aca­d­e­mics and those enrolled in higher education.

The draft FAQ says it will cover:

• Life as a grad­u­ate stu­dent, post­doc­toral researcher, uni­ver­sity professor
• Tran­si­tion­ing from under­grad­u­ate to grad­u­ate researcher
• Inner work­ings of research departments
• Require­ments and expec­ta­tions of academicians

Judg­ing from the first 89 ques­tions, this is going to be extremely help­ful, espe­cially for PhD students.
