Starting M.A. in Near Eastern Studies in the Fall!

Bumping this because I'm interested too! Anyone come across anything interesting yet?

So I saw a few comments on tablets, but I wanted to ask directly - thoughts on getting a tablet for the start of grad school? Pretty sure my program is going to be reading intensive (middle eastern studies) and I was considering just transferring to paperless and purchasing all of my books online. Anyone do this and feel one way or the other about it? What kind of tablet should I get?

I noticed that most of this is tailored towards PhD's, but I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for Master's students. Any options that we could take to get some side money other than waiting tables?

Worrdddd. Thanks!

Currently double majoring, but I'm finding some extreme discomfort with my second degree. I've already gotten into grad school, but I was considering dropping the second degree for a few reasons a. department is unorganized b. too many requirements that are unnecessary c. it doesn't directly pertain to what I want to do. I've accepted a pretty sweet deal for my M.A. program, and I don't want to jeopardize it. Thoughts on dropping this second major, since (at least I think) it doesn't change any of my accomplishments or application. I'm entering my M.A. program for my first degree (MES). Thanks!
