Pros

Some great faculty, good sense of community fostered by other grad students

Cons

The pay is low, and change is slow! I appreciate that IU has full funding options for their graduate degrees in the Media School, and I do not regret attending. But $15,000 per year is not a living wage, especially since the university requires students to pay up to 15 percent of it back in fees. Graduate students teach 30 percent of classes at IU. At the very least, graduate fees should be eliminated and we should be able to afford rent and health care. This is why academia struggles with racial and socioeconomic diversity: grad school is too expensive a ladder for most people to take a chance on climbing.

Thanks for the feedback. While the pay might be a little lower, the benefits are outstanding, and that adds to the total rewards package.

Sorry to see that the experience you are having is not as well as you had hoped for, especially if the only Pro is that the IU Cinema is cool.
