Since its founding more than 150 years ago, 海角直播app College has been well known for going the extra mile to provide the best education possible to undergraduate students of all ages and backgrounds. Now, 海角直播app is taking that same expertise and dedication to attract and retain graduate and adult students.
Of course, 海角直播app has been offering quality master鈥檚 degree programs for several years but our new Department of Graduate and Adult Education will place even greater emphasis on attracting, enrolling, and retaining graduate and adult students. The new department reflects the changes in higher education taking place regionally and nationally and helps supplement 海角直播app鈥檚 Professional Development Institute (PDI), established several years ago to offer non-degree enrichment, continuing education, and certification programs.听
As the population of high school aged students continues to decline, colleges and universities seek to enroll students from other demographics, including graduate students and adults hoping to return to college to complete their education. The new department at 海角直播app will place additional emphasis on attracting students from these specialized areas.
鈥淲e are extremely excited to bring this new initiative to 海角直播app College,鈥 said newly appointed Director of Adult and Graduate Education John Gorel, who also directs the PDI initiative. 鈥淲e know that 海角直播app has offered high quality graduate education for many years. However, our new program will absolutely increase our visibility to prospective students, including 海角直播app alumni.鈥
In addition to John, longtime 海角直播app employees Mari Flynn, Elena O鈥機onnor, and Fran Calpin have joined the new group.
鈥淥ur team brings great knowledge and experience to their new positions,鈥 said John. 鈥淢ore importantly, they have tremendous respect for the 海角直播app tradition which values each and every student. We really look forward to making significant progress with our new initiative in months to come.鈥
To show our appreciation for continuing the 海角直播app tradition, all alumni receive a 10 percent tuition discount on graduate tuition. Anyone interested in learning more about graduate education at 海角直播app may contact or e-mail john.gorel@keystone.edu.听
