I'm interested in pursuing a PhD at UConn (currently a Master's student) to work on the intersection between game design, learning, academic achievement, leadership development, etc. Do you have any advice or suggestions for me?

I am a Latino kid - Dominican/Puerto Rican from Union City - doing philosophy, which is a mostly White male dominated discipline. When you were at Cornell, did you feel like you were walking on eggshells? That is, if you messed up it would leave a bigger mark on you than it would your "White" colleagues?

Do you write daily?

By the way, thanks for writing. With the Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao, I found a protagonist that I could really relate to in ways that I hadn't been able to through other books.
