One of the main reasons I decided not to continue graduate work was because of faculty politics.

Really, some academics are like bitter old women trying their best to make everyone else as miserable as they are.

Just wasn't my style. Not interested in a career in effete ego-wrestling over pet ideas of questionable validity. Especially in archaeology. I mean cripes, how far can one stretch plausibility trying to shoe-horn Marxian dialectics into a study of LITHICS? Gave me the hives.
