I have been thinking lately that education is a little overrated, but I do think I'll need a Master's someday... I'm considering this place.
Look at the list of instructors.
A significant portion is distance learning, but wow...

It is called "the European Graduate School" but it is located in New York City, and "DJ Spooky" is on the faculty.
Start with that. |

Too funny.
I hear there's a print shop in Itaewon that makes realistic degrees.
Probably cheaper and faster. |

I'd be worried about that and the fact that they print his discography under the one 'book' he has published. Can you spell Mickey Mouse? |

Do you guys know who DJ Spooky is? I'm not a huge fan of his work, but he's a pretty well known Postmodernist... whatever that means. In this emerging era of the digital wonderland he has had a lot to say about culture. All of the "faculty" are as close as you can get nowadays to avant garde.
How does the tuition stack up to other distance learning degrees? |

That's a killer faculty. I would sure be interested. I'm going to look into it. And I don't need another MA, it would just be a cool study. |

hm.
First glance looked cheezy, but my bro. recognized a lot of names.
Nothing to interest me, but perhaps a legitimate means to your end. |

School seems to be accredited in Switzerland but it is in USA and is not accredited in the US. Looks good but it depend on what you want in the way of accreditation. |

Holy Shiite, they list David Cronenberg, David Lynch, Peter Greenaway, and Atom Egoyan as faculty. |
