We are happy to announce a new relationship with the School of Education at
Boston University. Those of our students who are inclined to pursue a
teaching career may apply to the Master of Arts in Teaching program, where
they will have reason to expect a generous scholarship and, after only one
further year, a position in elementary or secondary teaching in the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts. In other words, where other programs offer an
MFA after two or three years, we offer, for those who might be interested,
two degrees, one in Creative Writing, the other in teaching. We
believe that writers often make the best teachers and are committed to
improving the classroom experience for everyone in the Commonwealth.
We also offer exciting paid internships at the Boston Academy of the Arts, a
pilot school near Fenway Parkway, in which our students may work with some
of the most talented high school students throughout the Boston Area.
The
city is expensive, a bit provincial, and troubled in various ways;
but it is very beautiful, lively enough, and you can walk from our
offices to Fenway Park and get a ticket for that evening's game. Speaking
of our offices, they are located on the second floor of an old and
pleasant building on a charming street of turn-of-the-century townhouses.
All of our faculty, including the teaching fellows and our program
coordinator, are grouped together pretty much around the lounge where
many of the workshops are taught. If you twist your neck a little,
you can see a bit of the Charles and sails dipping and tacking along
it. For added convenience, the rest of the English Department takes
up the top three floors.
