I ran into a student I hadn't seen in awhile; that student is getting a PhD in another department but a professor from my department was their advisor. The student told me that they decided to leve their PhD program with a masters (I think after 5 years in the program) because they were fed up with all the bullshit and egos. The student found their dream job and is starting in a couple weeks. That makes eight students in the five years I've been in the program. Two of those students were working with advisors in my department who had joint appointments but the students were actually part of another department. It's depressing.
