Academics: M.A. in Biography & Memoir at the Graduate Center, CUNY

1/13/2019

Finally write that book of yours!

By the Editors

In the library at the Graduate Center, CUNY in Manhattan

Hey nerds, if you're debating whether or not to go to grad school, we have a new program to tempt you: the nation's first-ever M.A. in Biography and Memoir at the Graduate Center, CUNY.

The GC just announced the degree on January 7th. Wondering why we're intrigued? Well, there a few reasons. One is that it's an interdisciplinary Master's program at a progressive, urban university known for its social mobility. Another is that it's located in one of our favorite cities in the world (hello, Sex & the City dreamland.) Something else worth mentioning is that the program is creative and scholarly. After taking four foundational courses, students can take electives in film, art history, psychology, urban politics, and other fields. Plus, Graduate Center faculty across departments have published their own award-winning biographies. Oh, and did we mention that the program is offering two $5,000 scholarships, too? That is at a school that already offers (relatively) affordable in-state tuition.

Step 2. Apply "solar" Page Layout

Once you create a new homepage, apply the "solar" page layout to the new homepage. You can do this by clicking on "Pages" at the top, select the homepage on the left, and under "HEADER TYPE", select "solar".
