I can only speak for Illinois State as a current grad in the program. I have nothing but good things to say about the program. It's a small program, but professors are helpful and have a very generous open door policy. And a big bonus is that funding is guaranteed upon admission. It's not much, but being such a short program, it's nice to know that everyone has the same amount to work with, haha. The program also allows a great deal of flexibility in terms of thesis topics - and they just hired a new Midwestern archaeologist to work with who does lithic use-wear. Overall: Excellent program. Highly recommend it!
