making the numbers public
i'm nervous about this. in one week, i have to decide.
Brubeck13: how have things been going? has a decision been made about grad school?
JoieTang: not yet
JoieTang: by april 21
JoieTang: i'm torn right now
JoieTang: uc riverside is offering to waive tution and fees and give me a guaranteed 7000 per year, plus maybe 5000 for two years, and it's a phD program in dance history and criticism
JoieTang: berkeley is offering to waive tuition and fees, but has no other funding, and it's only a 2 year masters in folklore...but then again, it's berkeley, which is its own selling point
JoieTang: i can't quite figure out what i want, because...i can make both work
Brubeck13: that is a tough choice. have you had a chance to visit both universities?
JoieTang: i'm doing that this weekend

wait, you're going to be in berkeley? email me!!
Fear not. You'll figure it out on your visit--don't be afraid to go with the place that feels right. The extra money is nice from UC Riverside, but both offers are really great, so it probably doesn't come down to that so much as the intangible things.
Call or email me if you want to have a discernment discussion. =)
you. are a freaking. rockstar.
