@arpitrage @Andrew___Baker @SHamiltonian @RPShah_econ I of course agree that the costs are high and the rationale is a LOT more complicated than some narrow, pure educational mission But there are plenty of places that justify a PhD prog with basically no expectation of ever (even occasionally) placing students in top faculty jobs

@arpitrage @Andrew___Baker @SHamiltonian @RPShah_econ (Less for Arpit than eg current/aspiring PhD students following thread): - Pure education - Placements (top but also full spectrum) - TA - RA - Coauthorship (current and future) - Prestige of having PhD prog - Internal institutional expectations @andrew___baker/1257352613219237889
