I submitted a long erotica story to a university as part of an application to be admitted to an MFA (Master's of Fine Arts) Creative Writing program. I was accepted, too. Amazing. The story had to have raised an eyebrow or two on the qualifying committee. Anyway, i moved back to California rather than start the program there but i *did* get accepted and i *would* have finished, had i begun. Does that count?

Funny you should mention this, Cym, but one thing I've noticed since the feminist "take-over" in English deparments--gotta love it--is that the creative writing programs have become more hospitable to erotica. Coincidence? Dunno. Each year the program here hosts a big "open mic" reading event of erotica and porn at a local pub, and it's usually packed to the rafters with women.

Re: from Me -

Does anyone else feel that it really does not matter the Degree you get - it is the act of getting the degree - the going to class - the tests - the deadlines - that is what the employer is looking for - that you made it past all that -- the party's - the freedom - but still making the grade --

Don't you agree?

I understand what you are saying.... but I'm not sure I want my appendix taken out by an accountant.

I am personally in a very technical field. It would be impossible for me to have the respect of my clients or coworkers without the degrees I have earned. Not to mention the fact that without the knowledge gained through my education, I would have no friggin idea what they were talking about.
