Students submit portfolios as part of the admissions process.
These portfolios are maintained and expanded throughout the program culminating in a capstone project. The program was launched in January of 1999. Since then, twenty-five students have completed at least one course in the program and two are nearing graduation. During the Fall semester of 1999 we conducted a comprehensive study of the student experience in this program. Survey data, individual student interviews, and student portfolios were reviewed.
