Ah, that's interesting. So I guess the idea that arts PhDs don't get funding in the US is (mostly) a myth?

I think people think that having to TA means they’re not being funded or something like that. If you’re getting into a program that doesn’t fully fund you, then that program doesn’t want you or it’s not a good research program. All reputable PhD programs fully fund across disciplines.
