I will be joining Art21’s Open Enrollment column, blogging about my graduate school experience over the next semester and possibly beyond.
Open Enrollment chronicles the experience of graduate school via the perspective of current students. As MA and MFA degrees become ever more the norm for the professional training of artists, educators, and administrators alike, Open Enrollment functions as a time-sensitive journal, offering readers a birds-eye-view of the challenges, rewards, puzzles, and ontological questioning that a graduate education engenders.
Each semester, a selective and diverse group of students from accredited graduate programs, as well as students studying at non-traditional institutions (temporary schools, artist’s educational projects, intensive residency programs, etc.), will take up residence on the blog.
I’m pretty thrilled to be selected, and can’t wait to chronicle the daily conversations overheard in the Tisch stairwell about broken hearts, lost roles and dead cats.
