It looks like George W. got three of four letters correct, and for him, that's pretty darn good. It was Iran, not Iraq, stockpiling weapons of mass distruction. An honest mistake. (NOT!)

I've sent out a number of inquiries regarding Ph.d. programs in Ethnomusicology. In Ireland the most promising locations seems to be University College Cork, and I've also emailed the music departments at Cambridge and University of Sheffield. Hopefully there will be a response soon. Are there any other potential ethnomusicology programs in Ireland or Great Britain worth investigating? I've been told that Belfast has a good program, but the political and social problems there make it less appealing. I'm also not that keen on being in a major city like Dublin or Belfast. Cork seems to be the most appealing, but I'll entertain other suggestions.

University of Sheffield's program is also appealing in that they do have a program in place that allows students to complete the degree without being there for the duration of the research and dissertation writing.
