Here is a link to the top 50 MFA poetry programs of 2012:
The Following table is a sample of 20 of the top 50 American MFA poetry programs of 2012 and their respective faculty members. It includes the current Faculty as well as Visiting Faculty from past till present. It's as comprehensive as I could make it. I hope to refer to this table in later posts as a reference of contemporary poets and their styles. I want to read the work of some of these scholars. I already have read some of Khaled Muttawa's poetry as well as Meghan O'Rourke's poetry. That is why they are highlighted in yellow. This is a good starting off point for further analysis into style and craft I think.
