Here's more MALAS INFO from an email sent to the program:
MALAS Familia! Friends, Students,
Alumni and Faculty of the Master of Arts
in Liberal Arts and Sciences,
It gives me great pleasure to announce
Madness and Delinquency. . . or, What Would You
that all 12 of our MALAS Comprehensive
Exam takers have PASSED their final
hurdle and will be graduating at Commencement,

Do if Carlos Fuentes and Michel Foucault Showed
Up at Your MALAS Graduation Party?
MALAS Commencement is on Sunday, 10am,
in West Commons 220--no tickets are necessary
and MALAS MAs need not feel the need to wear
their graduation robes (though if you have them, why
not strut your academic finery!???). Feel free to bring, friends,
family, and (best yet) prospective folks you think
might like to be part of the MALAS experience.
This is a renaissance year for MALAS. I am in
debt to the College of Arts and Letters for its
ongoing support of MALAS. I am in debt as well
