Abstract:
Succeeding in the world of doctoral-level graduate school requires students to create plausible situations out of the chaos surrounding them. Through a set of stories elicited from members of a doctoral program we have shown how telling stories can mitigate the chaos and work towards the development and perpetuation of the doctoral program itself.
