This graduate program is a waste of time if you have an undergrad degree in history- there are NO graduate only history courses offered. Professors and the department offer little guidance about conducting historical research, aside from a single historiography class which ought to be taught to undergrads- and is. I feel as if I've gotten stupider after my time here, and know that there is not a PhD program in the country that will view my time here as preparation for doctoral studies. Wish I'd known sooner.
