Comments from our faculty

"A major feature of our program is the opportunity for students to consider practicum experiences at one of the 15 higher education institutions in our metropolitan area.  These institutions represent very different types of environments: public and private, large and small, 2 year and 4 year, residential and commuter, as well as institutions identified as religiously affiliated, historically black, or progressive"

Joanne Risacher, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Educational Leadership - Student Affairs in Higher Education Program.
