Welcome to DoctoralStudents.org! My name is Dr Randy Parker and my goal is to help doctoral students succeed. I created this site because I want to help students that are struggling. I'm currently focused on publishing helpful articles on the site, but my long term vision is for this site to become a community of like-minded individuals who share ideas, discuss topics, and encourage one another. Contact me if you need help or want to contribute to the website.

Doctoral Students,
This web site provider was nice enough to keep this site active. But I am operating out of PhDhelp.org and on Facebook with the same name. The Facebook account gets most of the postings but some do not come through from the website.
The site is for the doctoral student and has a focus to keep you going. There are many fine books on how to write and how to do research. My area is keeping going as the world weighs down on you and the years go by and the degree sometimes seems farther away then when you started. Many bright folks start a doctoral degree but many less finish. I just want a few more to make it.
So visit us over at the new site. This site could disappear at any time. My best to you all.
You are not alone!
"My professor responded back to me less and less often and after a while I stopped calling. I had completed all my classes and was exhausted. I was working full time and the dissertation just got away from me. I was afraid to anger the professor. I could have paid off my mortgage on what I paid to the college for a degree I never got”.
