Hello all. I just joined the forums today; it is early, but I have a nontrivial amount of work to do, so I figured I ought to start reading up now.
I have a list a mile long of places I still want to look into, but right now, this is how it looks like my personal list is shaping up:
1. UC - Irvine
UC - Berkeley
Emory
University of North Carolina
University of Michigan
2. UVa
Cornell
Duke
WUSTL
Chicago
2a. (places that are on my "look at these programs" list, but I can't remember why they're there in the first place, lol. So maybe I am applying or maybe not, but I don't know enough yet to know!)
Harvard
Princeton
Duke
Michigan State
Boston University
Columbia
USC
UCLA
Oregon
Yale
Rutgers
Brown
U Penn
University of Wisconsin
3. My research interests are 20th/21st-century American literature and intersectionality as a literary theory (overlapping with but distinct from intersectionality as a social justice theory). I have a J.D. from UMich, so I suppose I should be interested in law-as-literature as well, but I'm not five-years-of-my-life interested in it.
