Um, in grad school - that's a definitive NO. Most people who go to grad school in liberal arts go for an amazing experience. They have the opportunity to take higher level courses with experts and study with other students who share similar interests. Its an opportunity to learn more about the your field of endeavour and work yours ass off but have an intriguing time doing it. Its the time to study what you are interested in. In library science, the classes are annoying and don't necessarily relate all that much to what you will be doing. Some will, some won't, and its a lot of busy type work.
okay, so what you are saying is that in library science (at rutgers anyway), the experience is more like undergraduate work than other master's programs, where the student is studying a more specialized area than in undergrad, and honing their skills in what they want to pursue, rather than taking a bunch of gen eds.
What I meant before was that in Master's programs, the student receives their masters upon completion of the program, whatever and where ever it may be. I thought you were saying that was not the case, hence my state of confusion.
