I was so glad to find a Communication post! I just found out I have been accepted at Georgia State for the PhD in Communication this fall. I'll be focusing on Rhetoric and Politics - my main research interest is in philanthropic writing. Anyone else who's applied to GSU might like to know there's an application available on their website that displays admissions info in real time. The final application deadline is still almost 2 weeks away, but it looks like they've let 12 of us in during this initial round. 27 still pending. Good luck to all!
