Maybe the example of an MBA was a bit extreme, but given the choice, knowing what I
know now  I would still put advanced study of business above a Master's in Fine Arts.

Mark's most recent post has a major valid point.  No one asks you to see the
credentials.  I worked for four network affiliate television stations, two ad
agencies, freelanced for CBS, NBC and CNN, was published in four books, illustrated a
number of magazine articles, well  (yada yada. . . ) anyhow, NOT ONE of the people in
charge ever asked  about my degrees.  Not one ever asked if my school was accredited.

Then I applied for a job at Northwestern State University.  They required a copy of
my transcript.  (I'm a graduate of Northwestern State University.)

Go figure.

Regards,

Sonny
