Self-Care as Professionalization: A Case for Ethical Doctoral Education in Composition Studies
Dana Lynn Driscoll; S. Rebecca Leigh; Nadia Francine Zamin
College Composition and Communication, v71 n3 p453-480 Feb 2020
Through surveys and interviews of 433 doctoral faculty and students, we explore professional self-care practices and related issues of academic guilt, imposter syndrome, and burnout. We argue that self-care should be included as a professional practice, taught and modeled, to prepare doctoral students for careers as functional and healthy faculty.
