<p>Might be an odd question, but here goes anyway.</p>
<p>I’m hoping to transfer to Bates for fall 2007. It’s my top pick by far, and I’ve wanted to go there since I was 12 or 13. One of the reasons I love Bates is their Classical & Medieval Studies major, which is my intended one.</p>
<p>I was hoping to study hagiography under Anne Thompson if I got accepted, but now I hear from one of my professors, an alumnus, that she’s possibly retiring. Does anyone know anything about this? She’s still on the website, but maybe some current students can give me info.</p>
