----------------------------Original message----------------------------
It is unfortunate that Mr. Ditchburn omitted any discussion of the dual-degree
programs at Indiana and at Pratt, where I am enrolled.  Of course the two
degrees
are different.  The dual degree, whether done as a joint program or
separately, is
ideally suited for the kind of multifaceted, multitalented people who are
drawn to
art librarianship.  Ditchburn's real complaints seem to be (1) with the MLS in
general as being beneath the dignity of a scholar, and (2) with dual-degree
students
who he seems to feel may not be on a par with single-degree art historians.
One
cannot argue with this kind of resentment; any education is what you make of
it,
what you bring to the table and what you take away.

There are many graduate degrees other than the MLS that are more
profession-oriented
(or credentialing) than the "pure" graduate study done in humanities degrees,
for
example the EdM.  This does not make them expendable.
