Graduate students and PhD candidates occupy a precarious position: their academic careers rely heavily on relationships with specific faculty advisors, dissertation committees, department administrators, and funding agencies. Exposure incidents can impact these relationships simultaneously. Unlike faculty with tenure protections, graduate students typically have limited options if advisors or committees respond negatively to exposure situations. ScanErase's discovery tool helps protect academic futures by revealing the online presence of their face without requiring disclosure to any academic party.
