Dear Houla, How do I know if it’s time to switch advisors?
Dear Houla,
How do I know if it’s time to switch advisors? My current advisor isn’t doing a great job of giving advice, or even getting my schedule done.

Music School Critique
This article is not meant to discredit the hard work and dedication of the Hurley faculty, as many of them are constantly supportive of our academics and well-being. There is a high level of inconsistency though, which makes this situation even more frustrating to many of the students.
