I hope theperspective gained by hindsight can supplement that lack of immediacy and that as a communicative act Ican speak directly to graduate students with something valuable. Now a faculty member, I am alsolooking towards being able to synthesize these pieces of advice in ways that I may be able to pass along tomy own and other graduate students. I do not anticipate this advice to be comprehensive, and I inviteothers to add their wisdom as well, in this paper (see Section 5) and future works.

Peters and Daly [15] studied engineering students who returnedto graduate school after working for a time, showing that the utility of the degree was a majordriving force in persistence. The decision to stay in the degree was viewed through an analysis ofcosts, saying that “the question was not whether they could successfully complete a graduatedegree program but whether it was worth doing” (p. 262).

Many faculty report seekingfeedback from their PLFs as they make instructional decisions. Taking this further, some haveargued that students should be co-designers. However, engaging teams of students and faculty inthis way presents a clear power imbalance [24], but one that researchers have asserted can beovercome by positioning students as collaborators and discussing points of view and insightsgained from these different vantage points. Others have argued that because of the powerdynamics, an intermediary such as an expert in teaching and learning is needed to formsuccessful student-faculty design partnerships [25
