“Hello, I mastered in The Beatles, Popular Music and Society.”

In the last 2 months I’ve spent a great deal of time researching universities to transfer to next fall, or if I'm being realistic--next, next Fall, or maybe next decade. Although I’m not yet ready to work on my Masters, I’m seriously considering this a future option:

Hope Launches World’s First Beatles MA
Liverpool Hope University has launched a brand new MA in The Beatles, Popular Music and Society, the first of its kind in the world.The new course, which can be studied both full and part time, covers four modules with specific issues relating to The Beatles and Popular Music, consisting of four 12-week taught modules, plus a dissertation.

Mike Brocken, Senior Lecturer in Popular Music at Hope, said ‘There have been over 8,000 books about The Beatles but there has never been serious academic study and that is what we are going to address.

‘Forty years on from their break-up, now is the right time and LIverpool is the right place to study The Beatles. This MA is expected to attract a great deal of attention, not just locally but nationally and we have already had enquiries from abroad, particularly the United States.

”The Beatles, Popular Music and Society’ marks a seminal advance in popular music studies. For the first time in the UK and possibly the world, a postgraduate taught course is offered to research into The Beatles, the city from which they emerged, the contexts of the 1960s, technology, sound and songwriting and the industries that have set up in their wake to capitalise on tourism in the city of Liverpool.’

For further information, please call the postgraduate enquiry line on 0151 291 3389.

I’m not even joking. I’ve always wanted to go to school overseas. I'd be proud to be a Beatles Historian. Degrees in something useful are overrated, right?

As for more attainable matters, for my BA I’ve been looking into these schools/programs :

Loyola Chicago, Journalism

University of Washington, Classics, Romance Linguistics or Journalism

New York University, Writing or Performance

Safety:

San Francisco State University, Journalism: concentration in Photojournalism

Cal State Long Beach, Journalism major, Classical Studies minor, Film minor

Oh yeah, about my project. I'll be catching up this week.
I fell a little behind 'cause I had 3 essays due last week for my English classes. =(
It doesn't mean I don't love you my wittle Multimedia class. You bring me much joy.
