Indiana is really strong in Russian, but I can't see myself there geographically. Penn, however, is one of the schools I'm pretty seriously looking at. I'm not sure that they took in any Russian students this year though, so I'm not sure if that bodes well ahah.

I should have specified! I'm more interested in cultural relations, specifically cultural exchanges between Americans and Russians. Most of my work has focused on Americans in Russia and Russians in America, and placing their visits/experiences in the context of US/Russian relations.

Hey everyone! I just started making my list of potential schools and figured I might as well introduce myself here. My background is in American Studies and Russian Studies, both with an emphasis on the 20th century. I'm still not quite sure what direction I want to take. I'm trying to find schools with solid Russian programs even though I'm likely going to focus on American history. I've only been looking at PhD programs, but I'm undecided if I want to teach or work in an archival/museum setting.. So right now I'm just casting a wide net and writing a short profile for pretty much every school I'm remotely interested in, then I'm going to take things from there.
