Pros

Great place to work if you are white, straight, married, have kids, want to work 8-5, and have no wish for tenure.

Cons

The bad press RU has gotten for diversity issues for students is true for faculty too. Plus a lack of support for being a scholar. Very disappointing.

Pros

Higher pay, compared to most PhD programs; but the pay scale remains the same through all 5-6 years.

Cons

Most labs don't have funding to afford students. The program absorbs too many students for its current capacity
