A Diverse, Supportive, Challenging Intellectual Community
Each year we matriculate around ten (10) Ph.D. students and twenty (20) M.A. students. The life experience and perspectives of the 90-100 students enrolled here flavor our program. A high proportion of our students are accomplished professionals and we value the practical experience and organizational skills they bring.Ours is a diverse, supportive, challenging intellectual community. Over two-thirds of our students are women, over 20 percent are students of color, and over one-third are students of color. Many are first-generation students. This diversity enriches our community and work.
