Notes
I was accepted to Columbia last year and ... declined. Among published writers who teach there, it's not that well regarded, mostly as a sinecure not as prestigious. To the person who pointed out the rigor (60 units vs. 25 --) that maybe not accurate comparison since it's also three and up to five years plus... HOUSING. Is this "whining"? Or, folks trying to articulate the pointlessness of trying to get ahead vis a vis schools that don't / won't / cant' offer post-graduate employment or, if publication, only probably far down the road? These are ***contests*** people, & the whiff of desperation that you smell here is something like Vegas around 4 a.m. ... cause not everyone's a winner and, sorry to burst your bubble, the game is rigged.
