1. Be kind, respectful and helpful to each other.
2. Be bona fide, truthful, genuine and curious.
3. Assume the best intention of others.

Any feedback about the PhD programme from Jindal School of Government and Public Policy? Any decent alternatives to Jindal? (Apparently I'm not eligible for PhD in law without an LLM. Is that true across the board or for select institutions?)
Candidates have written to the uni multiple times with no response from them for months. At least with new PhD chairs, that has changed a bit. Uni also had a very bizarre approach towards coursework. People have exams, didn't recieve any marks or anything, only to frantically look for them before vivas and presentations.
Some people were given ultimatum to finish. The places where they worked refused to give them leave and they had to leave their jobs to finish PhD.
