Resuming My Master's Degree

Back in the saddle again, after a one-year hiatus

http://grad.norwich.edu/
I have resumed my graduate studies. I took a year off in order to get out of the Army, move halfway across the country, and get settled into a new job, new neighborhood, new house, new life.

I am pursuing my MA in Diplomacy from Norwich University, getting an online degree in 3 semesters.

Yikes.

In fact, I have even started my first online discussion, which talks about the need for the study of international relations and whether or not it's a science...

So expect fewer articles in the near future, though I imagine that the subjects will be more international-relations-oriented. Just a word of warning!

Wish me luck!

Good luck, and tell us how the studies go when you can.

Yes, expect some short-answer discussion questions from my schoolwork to find themselves becoming threads on this site! Cool, two birds with one stone.

Hey it's what all of my post have been for the last 4 months.

I was going to suggest Thomas Edison State College ( tesc.edu) if you hadn't selected a school, they offer several Masters programs ( MBA, MLA )pretty cheap and fully accredited!

Good Luck.

It's funny that you mention TESC, Dyno. I got my BA there. Their online "fill-in'the-blanks" programs were exactly what I needed to get my BA finally wrapped up, once and for all.

Bachelor of Arts, Humanities. Thomas Edison State College, 2003.
Master of Arts, Diplomacy. Norwich University, 2008.


Nice ring, don't you think?

I gotta say that I appreciate JU's indulgence.
Y'all have been incredibly supportive in allowing me to post my research assignments as articles. So much so that Brad has been featuring me much more frequently, too. So to all of JU, thanks! You guys are cool!

Good Luck. Diplomacy and International Relations and Statecraft are really exiting. Kissenger's Diplomacyis is really a fine book to get into and also Niall Fergusons works.

Thanks, Bahu. I will say, now that my first course is almost over (five to go), that I have a larger worldview and have more appreciation for mindsets that differ from my own.

Hopefully I can keep up with the high level of discourse on this site.
