I've been looking at Media Studies grad programs and the most attractive I'm come across is the Media Studies Masters at the New School.
The catch is, I really don't want to move to NYC.
Does anyone have experience with the New School's online MA programs? I've only been able to find one blog post about doing this particular program online, where the student was sort of defending it like, "This is NOT University of Phoenix!"
Or thoughts on online MA's in general?
I've taken one class online (through MassArt) and I learned a lot, but never felt like "Dang! That was a great class!" Which may or may not have anything to do with it being online....

I want my students to develop the habit of reading about current events (local to international). Instead of reading a required book over the summer, I would like them to select one to two articles a week from a list of sources I provide them and comment on the articles.

What's a good way of deciding if I should wait a year before applying to grad school? I'm in a surprising circumstance that my music career might be somewhat sustainable and potentially profitable, and with many of the new opportunities coming at me, I wonder if my plans of going to grad school could be placed on hold for a year. What's a good & rational way to decide?

[GradSchoolFilter] Anyone know of any good progams in Media Studies out there? Similar to, for instance, MIT's
Comparative Media Studies program? I've found
this list at Vassar's website, but I was hoping some denizens of the Mefiverse might know of some more.
