“As a first-time student joining the fund, you may come in knowing very little about the stock market—and by the end of one meeting, you'll know how to write an original research report on a stock and get sound ideas about how to analyze the finances of a stock. It's a huge, huge learning experience that has only the pressure or responsibility of a one-credit class.” —Scott Schoen, Faculty Advisor and Guest Lecturer

“There was a moment when I looked in the mirror and realized that despite my busy work schedule, I had been neglecting something important for myself, which was advancing my education. A friend told me about the College of Professional Studies bachelor’s completion program. I learned that if you have military training, off-duty education, or courses and credits from another college, you can roll those in and earn your bachelor’s degree. Here I am now. It’s mission accomplished.”—Matt Kielky, BS in Information Technology `19

“The demand for information technology talent continues to increase and this trend will only grow over time. Our program provides hands-on experience in the tools that employers expect. Even more important, our program fosters critical thinking skills that help make sure our students will be able to handle future skills and tools that our profession hasn’t yet invented.

If we want freedom, we need to build lives beyond pathways to employment…in new, socially just economies.” -Clayton Evans, MA 2018, Single Subject Education
