[English-undergrad] Fwd: MA English at the University of Idaho

[James Tobias]

Hi English majors,

The message below says “Greetings from Moscow!” But it’s Moscow Idaho, not Moscow Russia!

Dr. Ladino is inviting people to apply to an English MA program at University of Idaho in Moscow, Idaho. 

Apparently, they cover at least some funding for all students admitted. See below for more information.

And feel free to contact Dr. Ladino for more information.

Take care,

jt

"We at UCR would like to respectfully acknowledge and recognize our responsibility to the original and current caretakers of this land, water, and air: the Cahuilla, Tongva, Luiseño, and Serrano peoples and all of their ancestors and descendants, past, present, and future. Today this meeting place is home to many Indigenous peoples from all over the world, including UCR faculty, students, and staff, and we are grateful to have the opportunity to live and work on these homelands."

> I'm writing once again to share information about our MA program at UI, which I hope you'll pass along to students who may be interested in applying. Our MA program has continued to grow and thrive over the last several years. Currently, all of our students
>  receive some sort of funding, either through teaching assistantships, writer-in-residence opportunities, or other paid work on campus. Together with our strong (and fully funded) MFA program, our English graduate programs nurture a tight-knit cohort of readers,
>  writers, and thinkers. I am hoping to continue attracting talented, passionate, hard-working students to the two-year MA program in Moscow, Idaho, a lovely spot in the heart of Idaho's beautiful Palouse hills.
> 
> Our MA faculty have expertise in environmental humanities, rhetoric and composition, archival and digital research, linguistics, narratology, affect theory, and 19th- and 20th-century Anglophone literatures, among other subjects. We pride ourselves on our mentoring,
>  close-knit community, internship opportunities, and a flexible degree that offers students the chance to forge unique interdisciplinary paths.
> The priority deadline for applicants is January 15, 2027. 
> 
> Would you please share the attached letter with students who may be considering graduate study in English? Please encourage interested students to contact me directly if they have any questions about our program!
