Talk and discussion by Maresi Nerad based on an exploratory study (see below) and a current project on "Searching for taboos in Doctoral Education". Professor Nerad described her research intention in the text as follows: "It is not my goal here to provide a comprehensive explanation of faculty and graduate student anxiety [...], to discuss anxiety through a psychoanalytic lens, or to discuss anxiety from a cultural, anthropological perspective of shame and guilt. Rather, the purpose of my trip was to gather clues and ideas about topics that have the potential to be silenced and hidden in doctoral training."
