I got my doctorate because my best friend said she was going and did all the research to find our school. We did undergrad together too. Might as well keep the study-buddy group going. We were each orhers mentors. Talked to my chair once a week. We graduated together too. Then I made my other friend get hers too. 👩🏽‍🎓👩🏽‍🎓👩🏽‍🎓
