Combinations and Permutations Episode 56: 8 and a 1/2 Years

On today’s episode of Combinations and Permutations Samuel Hansen got together Anthony Sellari and Steven Fisher to talk about a subject that they all know way too much about Graduate Studies in Mathematics. Disclaimer: This episode involves much belly aching and yelling about the horribleness of graduate school, it is not meant to influence any undergraduate student’s in any way and all of the opinions offered in the podcast are those of the disgruntled graduate students who said them. Really we want to go to graduate school and amaze us with your mathematical skills, really join us.
