I am also seeking information on schools offering MA's in museum studies and
which ones are considered the forerunners in this area. I have been
following the 'value of an M.A.' topic fairly closely and I have to admit it
has greatly dampened my desire to pursue this degree. I also wonder about
the cost of this degree, is it worth spending $32k (University of Denver) as
opposed to approximately $10-12k (U of Texas, Lubbock) when you are only
going to be making a salary in the $20-23k range? Or is this completely
dependent upon what you choose to specialize in? And Ms. Graff's question is
somewhat disturbing, although I myself have not found any programs that
require a previous master's to enroll. Is this common? I would appreciate
any and all information on colleges, degrees and what is the most marketable
in the feild. Thank you very much. (Feel free to contact me at

Sincerely,
P.Cegielski
