alicebtoklas--there's a couple of faculty there that i'd love chance to work with, plus I've done a lot of policy work out in DC and I'd love to be able to stay in the scene and have access to orgs out there for my project. alas, i'll have to make it work somewhere else. i didn't think choosing would be so hard.

I can't decide!! Choosing between UCI Culture & Theory and UMinnesota American Studies--and I'm wait listed to Maryland, would love to go there but want to make a decision in case I don't make it off the wait list. I can see upsides and downsides to both programs (and both areas for livability and my research), but would love anyone's thoughts on the programs if you've got them. I know that's a loaded question, but I'm getting anxious about choosing where I'm going to live for the next 5-6 years!

Yes! Just got my flight itinerary settled. Love the program, but hadn't ever pictured myself living in Minnesota so excited to visit.

Anyone going to the recruitment day at University of Minnesota?

I am also bracing myself for the worst for NYU. If calls went out last week...such a bummer.

How about U of Maryland College Park? I heard they are notoriously late rolling out acceptances, but I'm curious to see if anyone's heard anything back from the department.

Also anxious about NYU.
