or rather..RE-Bound!
Found out this week that I was accepted to the Masters' program I applied to at USC.
I say re because I started my academic life as a Trojan WAY back in 1983 at the tender age of 17. For various complicated reasons I did not get my bachelor's degree from there and landed at NYU.
So in a way this is life coming full circle, and also finishing unfinished business...
Very happy about this. After about twelve years of not very good news, this is some really great news at last.
Onto the next phase of life...Farewell film business..Hello, Mr. Chips...
Classes start in June, a lot to do, not to mention that it now cost THREE times as much to go to USC as it did in 1983!($400/unit then, $1200 now)
Times sure have changed...I felt at times like the lone democrat amongst my friends during the height of the Reagan era on that campus. During the 1984 campaign, Walter Mondale appeared on campus and was heckled by the students. We made the Evening News(rememeber the Evening News?)...Then George Bush Sr. appeared with his wife George Washington to cheers of four more years. The highlight of that appearance for me was seeing someone holding a sign that read "Jane Wyman was Right!"...
