Doctoral studies would be valuable to me in several ways. In terms of a career, I see myself teaching literature, writing criticism, and going into editing or publishing poetry. At the same time, I study the art of literature by taking part in the creative process, experimenting with the tools used by other authors in the past. Much of what I read and study finds a place in my creative work as subject. My poetry draws from and influences my academic studies. The dominant theme of this collection relies on poems that draw from classical, biblical, and folk traditions, as well as everyday experience, in order to celebrate the process of giving and taking life, whether literal or figurative.

I have just begun submitting to the smaller journals with some success and am gradually building a working manuscript for a collection.

Writing poetry also figures prominently in my academic and professional goals. Should I attend your school, I would like to resume my studies of Anglo-Saxon poetry, with special attention to its folk elements. My junior year and private studies of Anglo-Saxon language and literature have caused me to consider the question of where the divisions between folklore, folk literature, and high literature lie. In my studies toward a doctoral degree, I hope to examine more closely the relationship between high and folk literature. I plan to work further on this essay, treating Morrison's other novels and perhaps preparing a paper suitable for publication. The relationship between "high" and folk literature became the subject for my honors essay, which examined Toni Morrison's use of classical, biblical, African, and Afro-American folk tradition in her novel. For the oral section of my comprehensive exams, I specialized in nineteenth century novels by and about women. My personal literary projects have involved some combination of these subjects. I am especially interested in nineteenth-century literature, women's literature, Anglo-Saxon poetry, and folklore and folk literature. Having majored in literary studies (world literature) as an undergraduate, I would now like to concentrate on English and American literature. I hope you will give me the privilege of continuing my studies at your fine institution. I know that, in addition to your excellent faculty, your computer facilities are among the best in the state. I am highly aware of the superb reputation of your school, and my conversations with several of your alumni have served to deepen my interest in attending. It is in R & D that I believe I can make the greatest contribution, utilizing my theoretical background and creativity as a scientist. Later I would like to work in the area of research and development for private industry. After I earn my master's degree, I intend to start work on my Ph.D. Of course, my plans following completion of my current studies are to move directly into graduate work toward my master's in science. Management at this lab was sufficiently impressed with my work to ask that I return when I graduate. Another particular interest of mine is electromagnetics, and last summer, when I was a technical assistant at a world-famous local lab, I learned about its many practical applications, especially in relation to microstrip and antenna design. Among the 25 or so students in the course, I am the sole undergraduate. In the realm of engineering, I have developed a special interest in the field of laser technology and have even been taking a graduate course in quantum electronics.

I've also had the opportunity to study a number of subjects in the humanities and they have been both enjoyable and enlightening, providing me with a new and different perspective on the world in which we live.

When I began my undergraduate career, I had the opportunity to be exposed to the full range of engineering courses, all of which tended to reinforce and solidify my intense interest in engineering. It seemed only logical that I pursue a career in electrical engineering. When I was a senior, I took a first-year calculus course at a local college (such an advanced-level class was not available in high school) and earned an A. My interest in science dates back to my years in high school, where I excelled in physics, chemistry, and math.
