It is you who seems to think that by having this MA program, which is in some way associated with DL, that it is contrary to the "MUM vibe". >It will be just the opposite, the MUM vibe will drag down the MA in Film to >its own level.

I think your reasoning is faulty here. How is anyone going to be able to accurately predict what Guru Dev would think about anything be it "Blue Velvet" or western women wearing saris in downtown Fairfield Iowas?
