Gushing about academic prospects never hurt anyone.
I just got off the phone with someone at a small liberal arts university in the area and it's the first thing I've gotten really excited about since I've been searching for something to do with myself.
The adviser was very friendly and helpful and it sort of jolted me into a realization that I've misplaced my love of large public universities all my life. With all the attention of a small school why would anyone go anywhere else? I'm still looking at Georgia State as well, and there are many options that I'll see through, but this school seems wonderful. The program is very flexible and can be done in one year or two. It's a women's college but the MA programs are mostly co-ed. It's quite expensive but there is abundant funding available through both public and private grants, scholarships and loans.
I'm going for a tour on Tuesday morning and the campus looks beautiful. It's only 15 minutes away and on a bus route. I'm excited about the prospect of something fulfilling. It's been a while.
Now I jump on a bus to go meet a gypsy for lunch.
