Chris tells us that "a Masters degree with an ambitious main project . . . is a very good incubator for future Doctoral students" but the masters degree being discussed here--an MFA--is not a way stop on the way to the "real" degree. It is the terminal studio degree in the US.
It is great if any experience leads to new vistas but are you advocating forming the major degree requirements around hopes that someone would like to take another direction? Should JD and MD degrees be reworked in hopes that lawyers and physicians will become criminology and physiology researchers?
