Is it worth $10,000? Probably not. I hate this decision.

More degrees is always a good thing. Honestly, $10k is nothing once you secure that job. Do whatever will make your more attractive to a potential employer, period.
As someone said before, if a school is going to pass on you because you have a Masters and would start out at a few thousand more per year, you don't want to be at the school. It tells me they're willing to settle for anything less than the best and I can't think that would be an environment I would want to work in.
The idea that a school would pass up on someone who may be more qualified, boggles my mind. I know while I was goign to school in western NY the districts would pay for the teacher to get their masters. I had a few teachers who had PHD's that the districts paid for. Of course now NY requires a Masters to teach, so I wouldn't try there until you have your Masters (they do pay well though!).
As you can tell by my posts, I'm not an English Major. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
