WUSTL这个East Asian Languages and Cultures MA项目有分Chinese和Japanese,我选的是Chinese,截止日期1.1,12.31交的网申,没想到1.6凌晨就收到interview的邮件,整个人几乎是懵逼的,一个周末都在各种忐忑不安,周日晚上还险些失眠QAQ……
1. 1.8早上8点半Skype interview,两位Prof都是我在PS里提到的,一上来就很热情亲切地打招呼,小小寒暄过后马上就单刀直入,让我细讲我的研究兴趣(自我介绍并没有用上)。因为我PS里写了modern Chinese popular literature and culture,Prof. Chen(做现代文学+比较文学的)就问具体是怎样的lit,是网络文学呢还是late Qing和民国的文学,我回答说fiction and drama of late Qing, and also theater and literary work in the ROC. As for contemporary time, I am also interested in some new forms of lit, like internet lit.
