So I just got an email in my inbox today informing me, after 2 months of agonizing wait, that I got into the University of Texas at Arlington's masters program in biology. Considering that the American Association of Herpetologists and Ichthyologists has this particular institution on their "You want to go here" list, I am sickeningly pleased with myself.

Go me!

I have no idea what Herpetologists and Ichthyologists are though I seem to dimly recall the latter being about fish but as you are obviously pleased about it, congratumalations? :grin:

Masters first, my research interests are long term... which means I will almost have to build on the research done for a masters before I go for the Ph.D

Congrats Comrade. Since only steers and queers come from texas perhaps you'll get a more varied offering to your taste?

Many congratulations and happy returns, though the depths of grad school may seem to negate them!
