We've come across the problem that a lot of tumblrs regarding grad student life/problems are geared away from the humanities. The few that existed at some point are dead and we need a place to vent about our grad school problems, whether the general ones or the ones that are distinct to those studying English. Hopefully, some of you out there feel the same way. So here's to you, English grads. Here's to you.
