Congrats, being accepted in a masters program is an honor in and of itself. I'm very proud of you. I am confident you'll graduate at the top of your class, you've got what it takes. I'd love to be doing this with you - history is one of my favorite subjects.

Professor Z, it even sounds good

Sure are a lot of history majors on the lower socio-economic rungs of society... Hence the specialty in American history and a masters program to try and tap into the one part of the history profession that is hiring- community colleges and adjunct proffessorships to teach American Nation/History 1 and 2. Non-western minor focus will be on Africa and Latin America to prepare me to be able to teach minority students at colleges in areas that are harder to recruit professors for like the Mississippi Delta region.

Congratulations, zraver.

One of my favorite grad schools tricks was to take interlocking courses at the same time -- for me, Chinese history, economics and politics. The advantage was that the required reading lists over-lapped, and the optional reading was usually required for another class.

Left plenty of time to earn some money to pay the bills.

You? Jason? A Professor? Your students are going to hate you. And will forever thank you for forcing them to think.
