Not all Medieval Studies are the Same

For the record, I will be returning to my posts on The Canterbury Tales soon. Since Spring, I have had many distractions on things going on elsewhere, though I feel pretty sure that I will be able to get back to my emphasis on Medieval Literature again soon. I hope that especially by 2020, that I maybe able to give more time to the reading of poetry, prose, and drama again.
 Colleges can very significantly on the courses, requirements, etc, needed to gain a degree. As some of you are aware, the certificate of Medieval Studies is something I'd like to pursue at the master's level.
 It turns out, that at the University of TN for instance, Medieval Studies at The Master's Level is actually an addition to the History or English department, one gains the certificate not separately , but with their actual major. In some colleges, The Medieval Program gives the degree at the graduate level, though it is not that way at UT.  With that known, I'd like to eventually pursue an M.A. in English, with the certificate of Medieval Studies.
 It is an unfortunate fact that many Medieval Study programs in this country are currently liberal. I was warned this by a close friend some years ago.

 Next year, I will be enrolling online for my undergraduate in English. All prayers will be appreciated.
