This week I had the pleasure to talk to Bennie Niles, a third-year Ph.D. student at Northwestern University. We discuss how he navigates being Blk + in Grad School, shares deets about his latest project Just Tryna Graduate and how he balances that with his workload. We talk about building a community outside of the Ivory Tower and he shares his Lesson from the Trap! Check it out. You can follow Bennie on Twitter @bennie_niles and @TrynaGrad

This week Allanté shares some of the guilt traps we all fall victim to, but can seriously throw you off your game as a grad student. Guilt about not spending enough time on school, guilt about not spending time with family and friends, or just guilt about guilt! She *attempts* to provide some alternative facts about guilt and thoughts to get out of those guilt traps!

Prospective and current graduate students alike should have answers to the four questions explored in this episode of Blk + in Grad School.

Allanté reviews the first week of class and shares some of her academic semester goals. This week's Lesson from the Trap are wise wordsfrom pretty much everyone's fave, Drake.
