By being Kanti?Title: Re: Saint James Infirmary #774: “No-Tell Motel” Post by: jmundt29 on October 05, 2018, 05:49:42 pm Kanti's a reporter? Wait, did we know this? I definitely do not recall it.
Title: Re: Saint James Infirmary #774: “No-Tell Motel” Post by: GodWilling on October 06, 2018, 10:53:55 am I don't think we've been told what Kanti does. I imagine she does something.
On the other hand, we didn't know that Amaltheia existed until 741 but she knows Erin and Hitomi. So anything's possible.

I certainly don't recollect anything indicating that she was a journalist, but with that degree I guess she could be, at least part time.
Title: Re: Saint James Infirmary #774: “No-Tell Motel” Post by: GodWilling on October 07, 2018, 08:27:45 am I never knew the Oxbridge unis did that with MAs - that's ridiculous, unlike everything else associated with those establishments.
Does "MA English candidate" mean she's passed the coursework and is currently working on her thesis? That's what I'd taken that to mean. If it does then she'd no longer be attending lectures. The reporter is on "the Wilmot paper", rather than Kearsarge, so I took that to be a university enterprise. And that might make Cherry's question, "Do you know Erin Hackberry?" somewhat less unreasonable (otherwise why not just ask anybody?). It's not clear where Kanti was interviewed by the detective in 663 because a speech bubble obscured that piece of information. On the other hand, the first word on the door is Kearsarge, so maybe it wasn't the office of the university newspaper. But maybe it was.

You have to realise that Oxford and Cambridge were much earlier than other English and US universities (by centuries). Their MA wasn't an advanced degree. it was a sign of post-degree experience and maturity, being awarded to BAs not less than 6 years after the end of their first term in residence, the recipient then becoming a member of the University Senate. It's these new-fangled establishments who have shown no originality in re-using it for an award for advanced studies.
