Comments from my friend about Wagner. Note that she is VERY conservative, so anything remotely liberal seems extremely liberal to her! If you are conservative, this might be a downside to Wagner, if liberal you'd probably like it more!
"The professors I met so far seem to have a liberal
agenda, which I think sometimes discourages critical
thinking in the classroom.
I have met a few people who are outstanding, in my
opinion, and others that did not impress me at all.
I like the fact that Wagner has a very well
established relationship within the public sector in
NYC.
Also, the school has recently moved to the Puck
building. If she wants I can give her a tour. It is
beautiful!"

The Wagner School at NYU has an excellent program in Public Administration
and nonprofit management. I have one friend in the program now and she loves
it. Also in NYC, the New School's Milano Graduate center has an excellent
program in nonprofit management.

Meegan Carr-
I had a fellow Public History graduate get his PhD at Western Michigan
University. You might want to check in to it.

Dear Listers,
I am interested in pursuing a PhD in Non-Profit Management or Museum
Administration. I graduated with my MA in Public History in 2001 and
have
had internships and jobs in the museum field since then. Has anyone had
any experiences or know of any schools I could look into? I am
currently
working as an Assistant Site Manager for Garfield Farm Museum in LaFox,
IL
(40 miles west of Chicago). I noticed one school, Capella University
offered an online PhD program in Non-Profit Management, which would be
convenient, but I am leery of how good their program is. I would
appreciate any opinions from other professionals in the field.
Thank you very much for all of your help!
