The Inside Story of Academia

Today I spent some time finally organizing the complex web of relationships I’ve learned about the academic circle over the past six months. The result is the diagram below (click for full size):

Fig 1. A complex web of relationships

This is just my personal understanding—may not be accurate. To keep it separate from industry, I’ve暂时 (temporarily) excluded the Industry element, as well as the “Chinese characteristics” part.

If there are any mistakes, please leave a comment to correct me.

PS: The relationships are so complex that I tried every layout option in Visio’s auto-layout and wasn’t satisfied with any of them. Just bear with it.
