She has 4 MA degrees in different subjects and 2 BA's but no PhD. What do you think? Isn't that a bit strange to have that many MA's and no doctorate??

Linkin,
her MA's are in Portugese and Anglo Germanic Languages, Comparative Literature, English & American Literature, and Women's Studies.

it doesn't say what her BA's are in. And she is currently teaching a Creative Writing class for juniors and seniors...

Actually, I find it a little strange. I'd like to know exactly what those degrees are and what she's teaching.

She's a professional student, that's for sure. I kind of suspect she couldn't swing a doctorate. Especially if 3 of those masters are similar, it suggests she was on a doctorate path, but couldn't convince her panel or whoever was judging her. Was at it so long, she racked up enough credit to get a whole bunch of masters.

4 Masters degrees

2 Bachelor degrees

phD means doctoriate

no it isn't strange at all she probaly is waiting to get her doctoriate after all iti isn't easy to just go to college if your a teacher full time. These degrees take about 3 or more years to accomplish.
