    Hey there, Gamecocks.

    I'm a new admit to the PhD program in the English department for the fall. So thankful for this whole process to finally be over and really looking forward to meeting everyone!

    P.S. Anyone know what they're doing for housing yet?

    @ash_alv: I know at least one fellow English person has messaged our grad administrative assistant (whom you've probably received emails from already), she could let you know if anyone is still looking. (There was one other English person looking, at the start of the summer.)

  2. One year a long time ago, there were penguins who didn't wear hats when swimming. This made their mothers livid. "Unacceptable!"  Frightened, they screamed, "Bears!" Nobody seemed convinced so instead of going swimming they tried juggling. Their mothers tried everything they thought would teach her a skill. However, she couldn't even make oatmeal without disastrous results. So, the penguins gathered money (obviously) trying to purchase a bear.  Towering over them, a grizzly beast danced, devouring all bears with such ferocity that even God enjoyed it. Afterwards, God congratulated the penguins and applauded them.  "You did it!" 


    Suddenly, the grizzly beast started dancing vigorously.  There was an acromantula nearby. It challenged the preconception that magical mushrooms were magical.  Sparkling, the magical mushrooms were spreading throughout town. Nobody with pyromania thought grilled cheese would spontaneously erupt into nine identical squirrels! Nevertheless, the penguins elucidated the benefits of sparkling water from Iceland. Suddenly, Iceland exclaimed, "Enough!!! No more penguins. Kill all of the arcades on Monday because King Arthur suffered from sphenisciphobia." Tragically, everyone forgot lasers cure bug madness, meaning none of them stripped the violet beast of his powerful jaw bones. So while some arms spouted Kool-aid, others chopped nuts. This phenomenon halted commerce.  Together twenty-five yellow dragons danced sporadically inebriating all anger gods, while academics drank champagne profusely.


    Who were they? Snotty undergrads eating free Tetrahydrocannabinol Chlorate. Homicidal kittens emerged from congressional hearings purring rhythmic improvised melodies, infuriating the associate professors who stripped them intermittently of all credentials. The incredulous kittens meowed like dragons farts. Except Bruno, who mewed like tinkling bells. Understandably, one chicken farted. Then, surreptitiously, two giraffes killed the conspicuous dragon. Audaciously, someone belched "RAWR!"  Startled, four punks flew down from the Appalachian, a bit wide-eyed, and jumped into a brobdingnagian beam of

    This weekend, I received nice, brief emails from professor/DGS at UGA and U of South Carolina saying that I had been accepted, welcoming me into the program and offering to answer any questions that I have, but without any kind of letter or more information about funding, visiting, etc. Is this something that might come later in a more formal communication or is it up to me to read what's on the website and ask them to go over this with me/answer specific questions I have? Any insight is appreciated, thanks!

    Please consider that each year is probably different, but I received funding information with my letters of acceptance for USC, for both my first cycle and this cycle. THAT being said, I suspect some of my colleagues did not? There was a girl that didn't get funding - that is, a TA-ship- until right before classes started. I assume this is because of some last-minute decisions people made.

    All that to say, for USC at least, it's possible they are either waiting to extend until they have some confirmations or rejections of funding. I don't know if this will persuade you one way or another, simply my vague readings on the situation. (Contrary to what some might have inadvertently implied, USC is well worth the program! Very strong, collegial environment, and some of the very best professors.) But I understand that funding is a scary thing, and footing an MA or PhD is near impossible, and not smart, for many of us! Anyway, I just wanted to throw in what little I know of this scenario!
