Can somebody please tell me the difference between an MFA and an MA? We have an MFA here who is often tooting the "I have a terminal degree" horn, and expects to be paid as if he holds a PhD, as well as the added bonuses we offer in order to attract terminal degree holders. It this true? Is these some sort of governing agency that defines just what is a terminal degree, or even defines what an MFA is? How does this relate to our industry?
