Hello 
  Has anyone mentioned TUFTS UNIVERSITY, in Medford,
Massachusetts yet?  One can pursue a MA degree in
History / Education / or Art History & MUSEUM STUDIES
or simply complete a certificate program in Museum
Studies.  
  I completed a History & Museum Studies degree and
have no complaints.  It worked well for me.  It's one
of the better programs on the east coast....
