with apologies for duplication, i hope i may impose on the list for some curricular guidance our department is looking for models of M.A. programs in media studies to help us in our thinking about some curricular innovations that we're in the process of shaping given that the term "media studies" currently is used in a variety of ways, we hope to get a sense of which aspects of the field are emphasized in different programs, and in what configurations . . . our own programs in traditional "cinema studies" are well established; what we're especially interested in now are the ways in which other programs have moved beyond the traditional limits of this text [or history] based discipline into newer areas if your institution has an M.A. program in some version of media studies, we'd very much be interested in any information about it that you can pass along . . . of special interest would be program descriptions, course descriptions, course curricula, and even syllabi of specific courses . . . while your own personal view of your institution's media studies curriculum would no doubt be particularly enlightening, we'd gladly settle for any institutional boiler-plate that provided some sense of what your program looks like since my guess is that most H-Film people would not be particularly interested in this, perhaps it would be best to answer off-list to <[log in to unmask]> for myself and my colleagues, many thanks for anything you care to share mike frank . * * Film-Philosophy Email Discussion Salon.
