Things I learned on the English search...

among them, English folks have lots of different kinds of degrees!

MAs, MFA, MS in teaching English -- Ph.Ds in many shades...

and don't get me started on degrees in English vs. Lit vs. Creative Writing, non-fiction writing etc...

Really, I find it pretty confusing.

For the record, Philosophers generally have one of two degrees -- an MA or Ph.D. in Philosophy. We may have a funky AOC or AOS - but even then it is usually pretty clear -- 'ethics' 'epistemology' etc...

Really, I love many of you English folks -- but, you confuse me.
