[runawaytrain]

Hi all, 

I'm new on here, hello! I am doing a project on representations of the Western Frontier in American culture--in "tourist ghost towns" and modern casinos. I am interested in the persistence of the Wild West in the American collective imagination, studying why it is so appealing, and how it brings people together. 

I was accepted to U of Nebraska-Lincoln's Communication Studies MA in Rhetoric and Public Culture!! Have you guys heard of their program? Could any of you tell me about Lincoln's nightlife? (I'm from Portland... I know it won't be great, but I really want an artsy/fun town)

Here are the other schools/programs I applied to:

CU Boulder - Communication MA

U of Texas-Austin - Communication MA

U of Utah - English/Rhetoric MA

Oregon State - Rhetoric MA
