I emailed a couple of folks, but still have not heard anything.

At harvard, a report was released last year that recommended getting rid of the ThD. It's an old degree, and I think there are different sources of funding, though.

Shelly Rambo?

I'm waiting too.

Anyone heard anything about BU's PhD program?

Theological and Philosophical Studies!

I think the graduate housing is further from HDS than some of the Somerville housing. I hear it's nice though.

It seems like most people do their master's first. Though one of my professors here at HDS said they do take people straight from undergrad if it seems like they will go straight to PhD work otherwise. I don't imagine you'd have trouble getting into a master's program.

Lemme know if anyone is looking for a sublet in Cambridge. Ideally from May 1st.

You saw our shirts!

At the CSWR? The two bedrooms units are shared, of course. I'm not sure how they assign roommates, but it sounds like they didn't know each other before they moved in.

I like Davis Square, but it's at least a 30 minute walk to school--maybe more. I'm thinking about moving out that way because I like the vibe. I live in Cambridge right now, almost in Somerville. Somerville is kind of the cheaper location to live in. You could live in Union Square or Inman and still be pretty close. Last year we had to go with a an agent, because we weren't from the city. This year I hope to have better luck on my own. Oh and if you get a place for Sept 1st, there's a decent chance you won't get it until the 1st and school starts before then.

You can live quite comfortably for 1000 a month. Though I think a lot of the Harvard housing might be more expensive? The CSWR is nice, but pricy. If you live there you'll be right across the street from the school! I pay about 550 a month, but I live with 5 people. Our place is pretty nice and close to school though.

BU and HDS are pretty far apart by Boston standards. I lived in Brookline near BU for a couple of weeks, it's like a 20 minute bus ride between the two. I do recommend living with grad cafe people. I live with folks I met here

(We know each other in real life)
