Anhoek School

Blackburn created the Anhoek School as an educational experiment, an alternative to the GRE system. It is an all-women's graduate school that bases its curriculum on cultural production. Tuition is based on a barter system where student labor is exchanged for classes.[5] Its name is a "purposeful malappropriation" of the name Ann Hutchinson, a midwife in the Massachusetts Bay Colony expelled on charges of heresy, witchcraft and political anarchy.[6]
