| Abstract: | The author comments on the fact that doctoral training departments in psychology are proclaiming their intention to reduce the numbers of students admitted to graduate work because of a supposed "glut of PhDs." There is a widely shared consensus that it would be socially irresponsible to increase the numbers of psychologists on the job market. The author takes issues with this, noting that there is no shortage of human problems on which bright, well-trained psychologists might work.
