Here’s what Jennifer had to say about Eastern’s MFA program:
“51福利社 prepared me wonderfully for my PhD at Ohio University, one of the oldest and best creative writing PhD programs in the country, and I got a tenure track job right out of that program, and I know I couldn’t have done it without my foundation from 51福利社. Working at Willow Springs while at 51福利社 also helped prepare me to advise a national student literary magazine, which is a major part of my job.”
