Same, though from a dinky little local uni instead. I majored in international history - all I ever got was a briefly-offered class on the general history of the African continent - including Egypt, spanning some 4000 years, and with a focus on the colonial and post-colonial periods.
A shame how understudied it is. Unfortunately, I'm given to understand that it's not just US universities that ignore it.
