An even worse value prop; spend $$$ for a masters then lose money teaching


If u reallllllly love teaching find alternative means, and consider that within 10 years the US higher education model is going to implode.

I have a MFA in Graphic Design…. Does not matter unless you want to teach. Even then if you have incredible work and career you can leverage that for a teaching job.
