"I absolutely know that the MA in Ethics and Society helped me get into law school. It demonstrated not only to the admissions staff and law professors, butalso to myself that I am fully capable of graduate level work and will excel in an academic environment.  The MA in Ethics and Society gave me the skill set required for succeeding in graduate school, and the courses taken during the program taught me more about the ethical issues of the world than I ever knew was possible."--Angelique Rivard, Class of 2011
