| Jul 19, 2021 at 17:23 | comment | added | Kimball | I'm saying the only reason it makes sense for you to be worried is they've show ill-will towards you working with both of them, or if they disparage each other's work or the like. If they just don't get along personally, and can separate this from their academic views, I wouldn't think they would get upset with you. | |
| Jul 19, 2021 at 17:13 | comment | added | user136193 | @Kimball Yeah, both of them know I'm working with the other one. The "Is that logical?" was actually to do with "I'm worried they would be offended" rather than "They would be offended". | |
| Jul 19, 2021 at 16:42 | comment | added | Kimball | If I don't consult with them, I am worried that either (or both) of them would be a little offended, since I have drawn from work I conducted under them. I don't wish for them to think that I have an over-confident or arrogant streak in me, and hence did not consult them. Is that logical? - No, it is not logical. The only reason I can imagine they would be upset is because of their own feud. While it's possible that you could get caught in the crossfire, that would be illogical on their part. Presumably they already know you're working with each or them, yes? | |

That could "soften the blow". | |

| Jul 18, 2021 at 16:44 | comment | added | Terry Loring | Can we assume you will arrange funding to attend the conference (online or in person) without the assistance of either professor? | |
