Yeah no problem. I did my MA at Salisbury University. Great program. Even better Teaching Assistant program for those who get the fellowship. Yeah I know a few at BCCC too, but I'm at CCBC in Catonsville.

Hi all. This is my first post, though I have to admit I have been lurking since probably a year ago, but that was mostly because I was spying on who was getting accepted to the schools to which I applied myself. HA. Anyway. This is my second go around with applications. Last round I didn't have much success: I was waitlisted at George Washington, which apparently only accepted a couple Americanists, and I got into Temple, but with no funding at all and no real promise of funding going forward. I deferred the admission and eventually rejected. I'm already trying to figure out how to pay for my BA and MA, which I wrapped up last year -- don't wanna take out too many more loans. So I reapplied to only 3 schools: GWU (again), Johns Hopkins, and Maryland-College Park. I have a weird peace about it this go around. That is not to say I think I'm getting in; rather, I have a peace however it turns out. I'm an adjunct at Baltimore County Community College right now and applied for a full time faculty position and I think I'm going to get into Baltimore City Teaching Residency -- a "Teach for America" type deal, where you get assigned to teach in a "rough" bmore city public school. I'm kind of zen-ish about it right now. Last year I fretted something terrible; this year, if it happens, it happens. I love many things. God willing, I'll land into something one way or the other. Anyway. Keep your chins up folks.
