I'm a Hunter MA. In my ~2 years being at Hunter I've never seen any indigenous coursework come up but can say there are strong faculty in the Latin American/race categories. Harper Montgomery and Lynda Klich are their two Latin Americanists; Harper in particularly leans more towards the contemporary. The program head Howard Singerman teaches classes on race and the program as a whole has a strong contemporary focus. Bonus about CUNY is that Hunter will let you take courses at the Grad Center if you get it signed off so if you feel like Hunter overall can better support you but the Grad Center has someone you strongly want to take a course with, you probably can (and vice versa; I've had classes with PhD candidates from the Grad Center).

I worked admissions for a MA program in a different field and every year our deadline was Jan. 31 until the week before when we would extend it to Feb. 15. Partially a numbers game like you say, and partially because scientists (could be extended to academics) were terrible procrastinators and there wasn't any harm in extending.

Hello Linguist, Polygots, et al. I am an art historian who studied Spanish as an undergrad who needs to take a translation exam and no longer owns a Spanish-English dictionary. Truthfully haven't owned one since high school when it was more necessary since I had the internet and textbooks to use instead throughout college. Anyone have any good recommendations or personal favorites for dictionaries? I tried to leave the title of the post and tags a little more vague if anyone wanted to piggy back for other languages (I know I should have bought an English-MS. Arabic dictionary in undergrad but oh well). Thanks for the help!
