She's not Greek, though she wants to rush. She wants to be a part of ABC sorority (an NPC). She has to transfer because her current campus does not have the graduate program of her choice. Her grad program campus of choice has ABC sorority. She wants to know if she'll be able to continue on as an ABC collegian at the new campus. Two things -- only 2 NPCs allow graduate students to continue on as collegiate members. She's not even an ABC (nor has she even been accepted to this new campus because she's only an undergrad freshman), so it's just a case of counting her chickens before they're even hatched. |
^^ But is she actually transferring? Or is she staying at her current campus for her undergrad degree, and only planning to attend another school for grad school?
If that's the case, there shouldn't even be a question as to whether or not she should go through recruitment at her current school. It wouldn't really matter whether she's able to participate as a grad student. She wouldn't have to limit herself to those two sororities that allow grad students to participate (assuming they have them on that campus), because she's a freshman who can still be active in a chapter for 3-4 years. |

I wouldn't have had time to be active in a chapter as a grad student anyway - I wonder if she knows she's going to be pulling 50 hour "work weeks" - without having a job!

But she is in fact talking about attending graduate school in 4 years, which has nothing to do with undergrad. And there's no point in asking about transferring campuses/sorority chapters if she's not transferring. Therefore, the whole post is useless. :p |
To the OP, do your research about museum studies programs before you apply if your goal is to be a curator. A master's in museum studies will open up certain mid-to-upper professional jobs in museums that you would have otherwise had to work longer to get access to - but if you really want to be a CURATOR, a museum studies degree will get you jack. In that case, what you need is a Ph.D., in either history or art history, depending on your focus.
Also depending on your focus, you might want to check out public history programs. Just so you know. |

I was going to go to a museum studies MA program until I starting doing informational career interviews with museum people in NYC and DC and they all said "Get a Ph.D. if you want to go places." Of course, we see where I ended up with the Ph.D. thing. LOL. Agreed about the library studies will get you nowhere with museum things. Also, I would suspect that at some places/for some jobs, an MA in Art History might be more advantageous than an MA in Museum Studies. A lot depends on what you really want to do in a museum, so the OP needs to figure that out. /ramble |
