I'm not sure NYTMag resignation warrants its own section

Immediately relevant is that the Life and career section was updated with the event earlier today, and as of right now, the information is repeated. I think it'd make sense to keep the text under the Life and career section, based on my read of the Recentism essay (which I don't mean to use as a cudgel so much as a reference point). – spida-tarbell ❀ (talk) (contribs) 23:31, 16 November 2023 (UTC)

overhauling post-secondary education info

The text as it was:

She graduated from Kansas State University in 1996 and received an MFA in creative writing from Wichita State University.

The change I made:

She earned a BA in English literature from Kansas State University in 1996 and an MFA in creative writing from Wichita State University in 1997.

I'd previously edited the information to add information about her having graduated from Kansas State. I noticed, though, that the KC Studio source said her MFA was in poetry, while the article said it was in creative writing. I'm not sure I can figure out whether WSU offered an MFA in poetry per se previously, but as of today it seems only to offer an MFA in creative writing within which students can focus on poetry or fiction.

Because of this, I searched for other sources, and both her KCAI faculty page (cited) and her Poetry Foundation biography state that her MFA is in creative writing. I didn't use the latter because it may serve as a suitable citation for the assertion that she began teaching at KCAI in 2011 (which her faculty page does not seem to report).

That incongruity between the article content and the source (and the fact that both degrees' granting institutions and foci are accounted for on the faculty page) is why I removed the KC Studio reference. – spida-tarbell ❀ (talk) (contribs) 00:40, 17 November 2023 (UTC)
