I got that,I went to a school that was founded for comic book artists, and I even took a few comic classes. I'm just surprised a big time university like NYU would give a free ride.

Very true
A full tuition ride is awesome, more than awesome
I've got $11000 left of college debt to pay, and I won't pay that off anytime in the near future  _________________ Brian Defferding

Congradulations, Kat!
I'm about a year away from applying to St John's myself. I miss the north deeply. _________________

and eddie, the guy who called to tell me said that i wouldn't actually get my letter for another few weeks, so they should be sending them out pretty soon.
Taki Soma wrote: | what grad program did you apply for? and congrats! |
it's a joint MA program in french cultural studies and journalism.
my thesis proposal is going to be how the media treat comic books in france (as a true art form) versus here in the states. it's going to be so much fun to prepare it -- i get to go to france for a few months to do field work and research! | sweet bejesus, that is awesome!
again, congrats! |
pff, I can tell you all you need to know on that subject and save you your money to go to France

Congrats, and we can always use another pretty girl in NYC. Let us New Yorkers know when you make the move here, and best of luck with school. You should be very proud of yourself. _________________ 'In the world of the super-cowboys, there's always blood.' |
