Review Title:
You got to give some..to get some.
Full Review of the Program:
Second semester in and the truth is I've had my doubts and I've also had my moments of creative overflow. No program is going to be perfect. At the end of the day I think the discipline and hard work you put in and the professors you choose to work with make all the difference. The new director is kicking butt so things are getting better. Lack of assistant teaching positions were not fair, but hopefully that's going to change. If you want to write and work with writers...go for it!
