“From the
beginning, I felt that this program was trying to see
the particular person that I am and the kind of work
that I really wanted to do…Here it’s all
about designing a program that fits my ideas.”
Sarah Horgan, Cleveland, OH
After graduating from the Master’s Program, students use
their degrees to enter Ph.D. programs and professional schools,
advance their current careers and start new ones. No matter
what they ultimately do with their degrees, however, students
rarely come to the MALS Program solely to obtain a required
credential. Typically, they come to Skidmore to get the degree
they need by studying the things they love. For example, students
who come to Skidmore are not looking for the easiest way to
collect credits. Some are investigating the nature of creativity,
others are researching the roles played by frontier women in
19th century politics or exploring the ways in which different
cultures’ relationship to death reveal their understandings
of life.
Creative Thought Matters.
