I'd missed this update, but I'm so excited for you. Welcome to the Fab Academics team!

Wow! How wonderfully exciting! I haven't been around much myself so I am slow to reply. Congrats on your scholarship. What made you decide on Cultural Studies? Do you hope to teach or maybe you already do...I'm not sure. It sounds fascinating!

Suz,
Such exciting news! Congrats and good luck.

Thanks for all the warm wishes.

Jeannie, the main reason I opted for Cultural Studies is I can write a creative thesis (i.e. a book of poetry). I do not wish to teach or join academia. But I enjoy spending time in universities. The degree is really irrelevant to me; it's the opportunities for study that I want -- and the funding, which is better than arts funding.

Congratulations! Change brings opportunity.
