My reply:
YES!!  All I have is a B.A. in Music from the University of California.

newcomers.
My reply:
I *wish* someone would do just that!  I need that!

My reply:
I do not think so.

My reply:
THANK you, Rebecca!!

Further comments:
As someone who fell into a semi-archival position by happenstance, I would
benefit greatly if I could take such a program.  I am one of many people
who simply *cannot* afford to take time off to go get a Master's in
anything, unless such can be done almost entirely on line.

Replies, anyone?

Thanks in advance, and Happy Holidays to all !
